Assalaam walaikum,
Brother,
The underlying issue is deeper. The girl has been given a lot of latitude. The father is just as immature as the girl.
When a child does something wrong it hurts the parents equally.
I am not excusing the behavior of the child. But, the father is equally wrong.

Aapa, from how I see it, You are covering it as a parent, together we are covering it from different ends.. For a change let me chime in. Also Aapa, the explanation that follows, is not a justification, nor am I refuting what you have said, just a supplement.
Having seen many young carefree couples transform completely and take the responsibility of bringing up a child, despite their own short comings, I still say the transformation is ........ amazing!! Given how selfish each individual is, it surely is Almighty's blessing, the transformation of a person into a caring, nurturing, tolerating parent! Often by tolerating the wrongs the child does, parents send a wrong signal and confuse the kids... From what I have seen around me, not every parent end up becoming a good ring master. Moreover unlike in past, nowadays Good ring master examples are far less, Good ring master courses are not yet in the commercial market, nor are they available in silicon chips to load and learn, Every child is unique and is a challenge. The undoing of the most stable social unit called family is hurting and firing back at all fronts... is it not?
The parents time is over, the parents are older, its tough to change the older ones.. Moreover the kid might have stopped listening to her parents from long before. The young kid now a teen still has a better chance, that teens attitude still can be molded. when parent fails, the immediate closer ones in society should pitch in, or else, the kid would be rubbed in wrong way and become socially less acceptable...!
When nobody is willing to listen, assimilate and produce a positive action; its vicious, blaming.
Yes, issues always issue more issues...
Yes issues always, are deeper...
So I had then said
If that gal does reconcile with her father, theirs will be a happy family. Lets hope sense sinks in the kids conscience. Lets hope this event acts as a warning and the attitude gets better ...!
I rephrase it again now
If the gal, father do reconcile, theirs will be a happy family. Lets hope sense sinks in their conscience. Lets hope this event acts as a warning and the attitude gets better from both sides...!
