Stapleton teenager and Northfield High School student Kennedy Springer is really struggling with getting along with her parents. From her perspective, they don\u2019t know anything and in her words, \u201cjust don\u2019t understand.\u201d She sometimes feels embarrassed by her \u201cdorky\u201d dad, but is having a significantly harder time with her mom. \u201cDad seems to stay out of my way for the most part,\u201d said Kennedy. \u201cBut, my mom can be such a bitch. She does mean things to me for no reason at all. I just don\u2019t get it. Kylie\u2019s mom is not all up in her business like my mom is in mine. Jill\u2019s mom lets her do whatever. But, my mom is always asking me questions like she needs to know everything. What am I doing. Where I am going. Do I need anything. I just want to tell that bitch to leave me alone.\u201d It\u2019s clear to Kennedy that her mother is so out of touch, she was probably never a teenager. \u201cMom must have went from 12 to 40 or something, and skipped those years,\u201d said Kennedy. \u201cWhy can\u2019t she just trust me? Uggghh!\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Kennedy\u2019s mother Jessica says she just wants what\u2019s best for her daughter. \u201cI just want her happy and safe,\u201d said Jessica. \u201cAnd I know mistakes I made when I was her age, so I want her to avoid those kinds of things. Social media is something we didn\u2019t deal with when I was a kid, but we certainly had other challenges. I\u2019m just trying to keep our lines of communication open.\u201d Kennedy says her mom is shutting her down by \u201cbeing so goddam nosey.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s like she doesn\u2019t want me to have a social life,\u201d claims Kennedy. \u201cShe\u2019s always threatening to take my phone, or not let me stay at a friend\u2019s house if she doesn\u2019t know exactly what is going on. I mean, who does that?\u201d Jessica says she will continue to do what is necessary to keep her daughter safe, even if that means \u2018being a total bitch.\u2019 \u201cI know we will eventually make it through this,\u201d said Jessica. \u201cI know my mom was a complete bitch when I was in high school. And I thank her for that now.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
