This morning was tough.
My 8 year old daughter A is so smart and thoughtful. She thinks about people far and wide, discussing the merits of laws and noting cultural differences between nations.
She is also very sensitive, just like I was at her age. I see how deeply she struggles just to navigate her own internal chaos.

My ten-year-old daughter M is on the edge of puberty, her hormones rising and falling.
She is so conscious of herself, her friendships, and how she is perceived. She is learning how to make change in her world, and we are trying to teach her the art of negotiation. Right now her tactics tend to be on the whiny, teary, demanding side.
