[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posit: if your kids are absolutely miserable in this situation, and you don’t have actual hardships in your life right now like loss of income or health, then you’ve raised them poorly. If they are old enough to understand this is a temporary break but still mope around all day depressed, then they are not going to do well in life. Success requires adaptation, the ability to make the best of things and try to improve what’s wrong or at least withstand it until it can be changed. I can’t imagine these teens who are depressed about a 2-3 month break will do well with the challenges up ahead in college and the workforce.[/quote] Um, ok. I'd bet $$$ your teen is sexting and getting stoned to make it through this and you're patting yourself on the back while gazing at your Mother of the Year award.[/quote]
