[quote=Anonymous]The HS counselor at our school said boys will pull away at this age and seek independence. The parents should allow it but not take it personally. They should find ways to connect to your child on a regular basis. Shoot hoops, go to a baseball game, go to a Star Wars convention ... Or whatever it is. Show interest but don't stalk them. Keep a connection that is real. They will come around eventually. But eventually the will be men with their own families and we will not and should not be their focus. He said it more eloquently... And it took him 20 minutes... But it was interesting.[/quote]
