[quote=Anonymous]Not all teens are bad. Mine are pretty easy. Sure, they do some eye-rolling, and sure, they sometimes sure don't seem to know what's good for them (they procrastinate on important school things, their rooms are pits, they wear inappropriate clothes). But these things are developmentally appropriate. If you go into to teen years knowing that it's their *job* to be PITAs - their job to try on new identities, test boundaries, and make some mistakes while they still have parents their to help them manage their mistakes - it's not so bad. Basically my kids are awesome. I don't mean that they are "perfect" - neither is a particularly strong student, etc. I just mean: they're good people. And they will someday learn that leaving cereal bowls inside the closet is unwise.[/quote]
