Courteney Cox On Raising Teenagers
Courtney Cox opened up in People’s The Beautiful Issue about raising her teenage daughter Coco, saying it’s pretty much the exact opposite of her teenage years.
“I want her to tell me everything, and she doesn’t want to tell me anything,” she said. “Exactly the opposite of the childhood I had… We bicker, let’s be honest, but we love each other. We laugh a lot, for sure.”
Coco added, “I would also describe it as, well, I am a 13-year-old girl, you are a mom, so I love you, but of course we’re gonna get in fights. But we’re very close. Very close. I love you a lot.”
“She’s 13, she likes to be in her room. Unfortunately, I got her this big bed and that was the biggest mistake I’ve made,” Courtney said. “You need to make a bed really uncomfortable so all they wanna do is just go there for those hours they have to. That’s the big thing, I think.”
