But my honest advice is to give her time and space.
I used to do the same at the same age, my father was always fighting with my mother because she gave me enough rope to hang myself (not literally). My mum always said she would much rather know where I am and know I am safe and know what I am doing than for me to sneak out and be a brat.
She didn't tolerate alcohol or drugs, but what I wanted was what I got to an extent. At 15 when I learnt she would always support and be by my side she become my best friend because I knew I could rely on her. After that we were joined at the hip. Not much difference now and I am 23 lol
Depends what she is doing but it sounds like a typical teenage girl thing, periods, boys and growing up with attitude. Hang in there xx
My son is 18 and I still get it. Right from the start I've pulled him up on it and explained how certain behaviours, words, attitudes make others feel. I just hope when it's all over he comes out the other end of his teens with the knowledge to stop being an asshole to me lol.

She is testing you...
The same way she tested you when she was 2 and when she was 3 and when she was 6 and when she was 8 going on 16....and when she was 11....
I love the first reply lol.
She is testing you and pushing boundaries.
