With Girls it's always a new day especially if the hormones are kickin. <br />Hang in there and enjoy the ride Oh and don't take everything they do and say personal. That has been the hubby's hardest lesson. <br />As of yesterday my 25 year old accepted a nursing job in Bryan and contingent on passing the state board... SHE BETTER.

I cried at the "I knew you were there" part...<br /><br />Thanks for the give-away but my kids are approaching 40... *lol* I will check out the book tho... thanks for the recommendation... I work in the public school system and having good books to recommend to parents is much better than telling them I did with my kids.Impera Magnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00889488057400766469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-17423716679281144532012-05-25T15:15:09.865-05:002012-05-25T15:15:09.865-05:00In a month and a half I will no longer have any te...In a month and a half I will no longer have any teenagers. My boy will turn 20. He is not rebellious, he withdraws. Just as frustrating as my rebel who turns 22 Memorial Day.

I have 4 teens currently (2 in their early 20s) and 3 more below teenager (10yo, 8yo, 6yo). Yes, I *KNOW* that *I* am crazy, but I'm crazy about my kids.~<br /><br />Lucy~qltmom9https://www.blogger.com/profile/00891119764581754368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-61466918617537575002012-05-25T12:56:30.674-05:002012-05-25T12:56:30.674-05:00One thing that got me through the teen years with ...One thing that got me through the teen years with my kids. I read a psychologist say that the more your teen rebels against you means that they love you more and feel closer to you. They have to rebel in order to form their own personalities and independence. And the people they rebel against they feel comfortable rebelling against are the ones they know love them, and so they feel safe in rebelling against those people. My sons have been very sweet since and the one who I went toe to toe with at times has been the one who I can talk to about anything.

He just put me through torture this last week of school worrying if he would pass to 8th grade or not - just because he wouldn't turn in his homework. He is VERYsmartand excels at those standardized tests, but is lazy. <br /><br />I also have an almost 9 year old girl, who is turning into a "diva" and I don't know where she is getting it from, I DO NOT act that way at all. <br /><br />It sounds like I would benefit from this book...

They're all grown now. One son, a few years back, wrote a sweet note thanking us "for believing in me when I didn't believe in myself". Hang in there. It sounds like you're doing a great job!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06755191961134444671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-48822333444852951872012-05-25T09:42:43.699-05:002012-05-25T09:42:43.699-05:00Congratulations Sydney, way to go girl!!!

I know its struggle sometimes, but those moments you experienced at the concert make it all worthwhile.<br /><br />My kids are 51, 49, and 44 years old, they still learn from me and they teach me a lot. They are still my kids, I am the parent, but now we are also friends.<br /><br />PatriciaPiece by Piecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11947220369390395236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-69591174100441937292012-05-25T09:23:40.837-05:002012-05-25T09:23:40.837-05:00I remember the day at the mall that our son asked ...I remember the day at the mall that our son asked us to walk about 20 feet behind him and act like we don't know him. I laughed on the outside but was really hurt on the inside. Today, we have a wonderful relationship. (He's 28 now.)<br /><br />Your not supposed to be her best friend- your supposed to be her parent. So just hang in there. :)<br /><br />Look at how far she has come - congratulations to all of you!!<br /><br />JudyOne Minnesota Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14324481663679002621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-67882291887936055082012-05-25T08:30:56.557-05:002012-05-25T08:30:56.557-05:00Congratulations Sydney!
