She has angry outbursts at her father whenever she sees him then comes home and hides within herself. She did not know him growing up and was told many untruths about his character. other than saying she hates him she doesn't discuss him any further. Any ideas on how to manage her and help her come to terms with where her life is right now? She is moody anyway but in general is able to manage herself. We do try to leave her alone when she is clearly just wanting to be alone. We still worry.... We are foster parents of a 15 year old girl.

A parent does anticipate the occasional hissy fit, but it is expected as he tries to exert their independence. I do communicate with my husband often about our two boys and their behavior, but I should reach out to the adults around my teenage son more often, too.
