I think it’s perfectly logical for mothers of teenage girls to want to pass on words of wisdom to their daughters.
And, it’s natural for those teenage girls to push back at those moms with an eye roll or an “Oh My GAH, Mom, No-Ah!”
Still, there are some things that need to be said.
Or, in this case, written.
