daughter

My 16 year old daughter has just come back after 3 weeks of living with her b/f and his mother. She is being snappy and rude to me to all of the family and refuses to tidy up after herself.
She finally got up at lunch time today and I asked her to sit in a different room so that I could tidy hers and empty her suitcase (we have a viewing on our house tomorrow). She said that she would do it herself and then went and spoke to her friends on MSN!
I then asked her again to do her room and she went into a rage and stomped off upstairs. Seeing that she had started I told her that I was going to get some shopping.
I have just returned and she has gone out leaving her room in the same state as when I left. I have tried to phone on her mobile and got no answer.
What do I do now I don't know when she will be back and I am beginning to wish she had stayed away.
How much are we expected to put up with?

Re: daughter

The simple answer is whose house is it?

Whilst she is under your roof she abides by your rules.

Re: daughter

That's just the problem. I say that to her but she still does as she likes and says that if I don't like it then 'chuck her out'.
