Help! My 14-year-old won't go out with her friends
Don't worry, 14 is still quite young and, for many, the party-going comes later. Instead, establish that there's nothing practical or emotional that's stopping her. But don't just confront her. Wait till you're watching TV together, she'll be relaxed and more likely to tell you any worries.
