I think that the purpose of Daly's "Sixteen" is TO SERVE AS A LESSON TO OTHER GIRLS.
At 16, you think you know everything there is to know just like the character in the story. She always say's "I know...." and because of what she knew, she had expectations. She expected that the boy she met in the skating rink will call her after spending time with her, walking her home, and telling her that he'd call. She was emotionally invested but she got disappointed. The boy did not call and in the end of the story, she knew that he will never, ever, call.
Waverly's relationship with her mother changed from the start to the end drastically. At first, Waverly would listen to her mother when her mother told her to do something ("Bite your tongue") and would take that as an educational moment. As time went on though, her mother would try to observe Waverly in case she needed her guidance. "My mother had a habit of standing over me while I plotted out my games" shows this. This is around where her relationship starts changing. "Ma, I can't practice when you're standing there like that" shows that Waverly is already getting agitated with her mother. Later, her mother takes her out to the market and shows off Waverly proudly. Waverly, however, does not take this as a compliment and their relationship stoops lower. "(Waverly) I wish you wouldn't do that, telling everybody I'm your daughter" turns into "(My mother's) eyes turned into black slits... Aii-ya! Stpuid girl!". This is too much for Waverly to take and she runs off into a dark alley. At this moment, they are both fuming at each other. However, we can theorize that even though their relationship isn't the best currently, the mother will come back for Waverly by the end due to the fact it cuts off at "I thought and imagined she wouldn't come back. Then two" gives us a clue as to what will happen. Waverly will end up being reunited with her mother and their relationship will likely mend. In conclusion, their relationship changed drastically from start to finish, quickly going downhill.
I misspelled stpuid because. Brainly.
