I think my difficult phase was in 8th and 9th grade! I talked back to my parents a lot....mostly my mom since my dad was working in another country!

15-17 yrs old. I backed talked a lot. Like A LOT. Slapped my mum across the face once.
I'm very close with my parents now and am dreading having a teenager...

Love your avatar, btw.
I was a nightmare to my parents when I was about 16-20. Mostly it was due to some serious depression + my mom being a nightmare, but we definitely had some epic fights. One time I went home for Thanksgiving and ended up driving back to college 12hrs later at 2am because of a giant blowup. FUN times!

10-12yrs old because after that my brother got into so much trouble I felt bad for my parents so I tried to be respectful but there was those times in HS that my brother and I would gang up on my parents and take off. We felt safer as a team coming at my parents..haha my parents were really strict

I never went through an attitude phase but I did plummet into depression at 15 and ages 15-17 (I moved out at 17) were very difficult for my mum.

13-15. My mom swore all her girls turned into giant bitches the day they turned 13. My older sister and I grew out of it by our late teens, but my 18 year old sister is still giving them grief.

I talked back to my mom a lot when I was around 12. Thankfully we worked through that!

About 16-25. My mom and I had very dark times. Now we are so great... friends, peers, but very comfortable with each other and we respect each other so much. I'm very happy with that!! But we EARNED it... we went through the fire together. We're both extremely strong personalities so it took that to get us to get along.

8th grade for sure! That was the only year I got in trouble, I was mostly a huge nerdy goody two shoes

Probably now (at 25)? It sounds horrible, but I was terrified of my mom growing up and wouldn't dare. She can be very childlike though, so I feel as I get older she acts more and more like the child...which causes us to argue a lot. Now that I'm an adult, I don't have to live with her anymore. I call her out on her behavior more.

Yikes. Ages 7-22? I am the reason I'm scared to ever have a girl... I'm sure I'll be paying for my raising, as my grandmother says.

For the most part it was never bad but I definitely gave some 'tude around 12-14. Ugh, I'm still embarrassed to think back on some of the stupid/rude things I said to my parents back then!

Probably between 13-15. We went on a once in a lifetime family vacation the summer after 7th grade and I actually wished that my mom would break her leg so that we could go home. The last place I wanted to be at 13 was in a remote location with my parents.
My mom and I are super close now. I told her when I went to college that moving out was the best thing to ever happen to our relationship! We did not live together well.

When I was a toddler! My mum and I had a good relationship throughout my teenage years but according to her I was a horrible toddler! I definitely had a temper in those days!

My late teenage years. I was working full time, paying my own bills, going to school full time, and basically feeling like I was hitting my head against the ceiling at home. I felt like I had all of the responsibilities of an adult but still being parented as a child. But it wasn't so bad.

In high school...11th-grade, I think? Age 16-17...I went through a phrase where I hated being a goody-goody, always getting straight As and trying so hard to please everyone. So for about a year I went a little crazy. But then went back to normal again.

I never really did... I've always been non confrontational. That's the main reason why I always got the short end of the stick.
