[quote=Anonymous]And do you return this “common courtesy”? Do you text him whenever your plans change or when you stop by a friend’s house? Do you give him a list of the people you are with? I’d guess not, and you’d feel a little infantile having to do so. That’s the same way he feels and his hormones are screaming at him to create some distance between you. At this point, scarily, he’s going to start making more decisions about the kind of person he wants to be. If you’ve given him a good moral foundation and the ability to think for himself, he ought to be OK. He’ll make some mistakes, but we all do. It’s natural for a mother to worry about her children, but it may be time to back off a little. You’re going to be worrying a lot more in the coming years, I don’t think that ever really stops. I suspect if you back off, you’ll find that he actually starts to volunteer more information. Even if not, I suspect he’ll be grateful.[/quote]
