[quote=Anonymous]My oldest two hit that point in 9th grade. Between the pressures of school, the hormones, the fear of the future, it’s a tough time. Rather than punish or reward, I gave them lots of space. When they became rude, I invited them to go away from the rest of us. I also tried to plan things we would all enjoy as often as possible. I remember seeing a lot of movies during those periods - I find movies stupidly expensive so we go like every couple of years. It was a major treat. We also went fishing a lot - they loved it. Anyway, seems to me from what I see, it’s a phase that’s tough on everyone. The more turmoil you can avoid, the better. [/quote]
