[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 16-year-old son and nothing has been tough. He is fantastic and independent and makes good decisions. It depends on the kid.[/quote]

I would have said this ... then 17 came around. Hope you knocked on wood.[/quote]

Hahaha +1 then 18 happened in April, and an admirable college acceptance. He  was/is the kindest human I've ever known. Butting heads is an understatement lately. We just argued via text, about having a bunch of his friends over last minute. I said no, and stuck to it. He just stormed in solo and said, I'm not going to ask next time, it's my house too, why the hell did you build this house and pool if we can't hang out. I seem awful right? Well...

For the last 13 years, I've generously welcomed,  laughed with, consoled, fed, transported all of these kids. I love them, but not enough for them to be a liability. Day will turn to night. Some will sneak alcohol in, and I'm not having it! There's a big beautiful beach they can walk to for a bonfire. I'm freakin tired of being the house![/quote]
