[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a boy (16). He's the greatest person I've ever known, from birth to teen. I don't expect that he'll be uninvolved as an adult, but I don't worry about it either. Boys to men are generally very loving and respectful to their moms. I expect yours will be too. Also, wait until the teen years when you spend time with their friends that are girls. You'll be very grateful to have no drama, easygoing guys.[/quote]
My son is now 20, there were some ups and downs, he has social anxiety so it was easy for his to take his frustration on me growing up. But, I find that with him, if I messed up I would apologize, if he did he would apologize, and he asks for my advice as no matter what he comes to me for opinion on girls, dating, school. DD won't come to me for advice on issues, but will accuse me two months later that I didn't even know she had an issue at school, while saying that she didn't want to tell me about it! And every singe time when she tells me I am on her side! But one time there was a girl who was a bully, and I told DD to realize that sometimes kids that are bullies are often having some issue in the family(turned out that this girl's dad was an alcoholic, and mom had a cast...for falling.....) but DD still goes on and on about, how I said this about a girl to give her a benefit of a doubt....and now she can't tell me thing. DD is 17, this was when she was 9??[/quote]
