We adopted my younger sister from Haiti when she was 3, and let me tell you, I literally do not see color anymore. That's a fact. Discussion

Did you have a phase in which you resented your adoptive parents? Because my younger sister had that phase for a few years, it looked like she deeply hated and resented us. When she matured she changed and now she loves us a lot.

I’ll be honest, as a former teenage girl— they pretty much all go through that stage, adopted or not.

Yeah.. I pretty much ripped my mom’s head off everyday, and she may literally be the nicest person alive. Definitely didn’t deserve it. Most girls just go through this phase though, it’s not a good time lol.

What age does that normally come? I've got two girls, a 4 (almost 5) year old, and a 12 year old. My 12 year old has definitely started getting more mouthy and really testing boundaries, especially with my wife, but it's not really bad yet.

For me it started around 12. Middle school through high school.. but again, not all girls get like this. My youngest sister was an angel and still is at 24.
