[quote=Anonymous]I'm 52 w/a 12 and 16 yr old. I am amazed at how much energy they still require. Unless I want them zoning out on their screens and eating junky food, it's constant. Sure they do their chores, but not like an adult does chores. Yes they help around the house, but not like adults. They require a lot of input. And money. Money flies out of my wallet like it's made of helium. I take the paper once/week (Sunday) and I did not get to read it this week. Yet. I wanted to do a little shopping for myself yesterday - no. Did not happen. Between an impromptu dinner party and last minute school and food shopping, no. I did get to bed at a reasonable hour, but I did not get to read in bed, as I like to. Also, DH and I waited til kids were out of the house this a.m. to have sex, instead of late last night, because they were awake late. We are all in good health though I do not exercise as much as I should. Good luck! It passes quickly - do not wish it away! [/quote]
