My Teenage Daughter

I've watched her grow from pigtails to makeup, from crayons to dressup.
 From playdates to real dates. How can this be, suddenly she's turned into miss popularity.
Prom dresses and pictures tears and confusion, was her just being a little sweet girl just an 
illusion? Suddenly i have become unpopular with her and popular with Dr. phil now i'm 
thinking i need to get my daugther on the pill.

Oh, yeah! I can relate to this poem. My son just turned 15 and while he still thinks I am okay, I am wondering when the day will come I am not so wise! The ending is one even with a son I think about. As a parent today, i think we have to. Wonderful poem.
