Mother daughter conflict

I think that young teenagers should be able to make there own choices and do what they want to do to a certain extent. When a parent steps in to much they can push there child a whole different direction. I also think that it's okay to want something for your child and you can help them get there but if they dont want to then fall back. I mean you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink it. An when the jing  me didn't want to follow in her mothers footsteps she gets angery and still tries to pursuade her to be just like her, but her mother fails to understand that her daughter is her own person.
