My 9-year old is EG. Since finding out this information, I’ve found myself questioning my own parenting. It is almost as if I’m intimidated by her. Prior to this, I’ve been incredibly confident in my parenting as my daughter has been highly cooperative and we’ve had an excellent relationship. But recently, perhaps because she now a tween, she’s more difficult and easily gets annoyed at me. I’m smart myself (I have a PhD and am a professor), but she is smarter than I am and I think she knows it. I worry that she’s manipulating me (she’s highly intuitive) at 9....I certainly manipulated my parents but I was older.

Has anyone had similar experiences or worries?
