You can not judge what is right for her on what may have been right fro you :-)

Just keep encouraging her and not feeling like you have failed whe she does not take them up.

Does she appear happy?

Your relationship must always come first so if it is damaging your relationship back off! She may just be the shy reserved type just because she is not involved in these does not mean there is something wrong. At 13 it is normal to be scared and gently does it will be best. Find out what makes her happy and go from there. Have you asked her this question?

Profile Information

Hometown:
Aberdeen Scotland
About Me:
I am marries with two daughter-13 and 11. We have been living in Malaysia for nearly 6 years.
About my teenager:
Laura is 13 years old. She is a bright girl and very homeloving. She has always been very shy although is lively when in familiar situations and company. She can be fearful of strange situations and is almost phobic about needles and flying. This has worsened over the past 2-3 years. She is reluctant to try any new activities and has few interests outside school.
The one question I would like to ask Sarah.
How do I encorage my daughter to try new experiences without it becoming a battle ground. she is reistant to my efforts to get her to do any exercise or after school activities. Do I baclk off for a while. It is becoming an issue and spoiling our relationship.
My biggest challenge.
To try and get Laura involved in activities outside school or to cultivate an interest in ANYTHING!
