[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shopping. Your credit card used with no judgement is literally the only thing you’ll have going for you for a while. We did all the ‘right’ things and DD feels comfortable telling us things and living her life - but everything we did or thought from age 12–8 was ‘stupid’. We could have been the president and First Lady or the Gates family but we’re ‘stupid’ and ‘don’t know anything’. Oh wait - stock up on wine? [/quote] Wait - I forgot vacations. Teenager willingly goes on vacations with us and actually interacts nicely with us on vacations. When we get back home it’s back to more of the same stinko attitude. DD is the kind of kid most parents want- great student, has good/nice friends, is liked at school and participated in some activities. Being a stinker sometimes just seems to be part of the natural separation process.[/quote]
