[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine are 16 and 13. It’s obviously less physically demanding now, but to me it’s so much more stressful. They are pushing for independence, think they know everything, no longer adore you as a parent. It’s just a lot less rewarding. They are good kids, but I constantly have to remind myself I am playing the long game and my reward is not today or tomorrow but 10 years from now when they are launched adults with (hopefully) good heads on their shoulders. [/quote] Mine are the same age and I’m finding it so incredibly difficult. You think you know them so well and it turns out you have no idea what’s going on inside their heads. It’s terrifying. [/quote] This. And they all seem to be questioning their gender or sexual orientation - which seems so bizarre to me as a middle aged person. [/quote] They really aren’t all doing that. It’s really just a certain subset. [/quote]
