Teenagers are a problem [b]IF AND ONLY IF the parent is a true
and utter incompetent. I bet you have given the teenager everything he
or she wants, and the useless piece of hormones has never worked
for anything. Hell, here's $5 on you always trying to be a "cool pal" to
the teen instead of a true authority.
Be a freakin' parent. Talk to them with ...[text shortened]... ations, you have spawned the
next Kim Kardashian or Jeffrey Dhamer. Just what the world needed.[/b]
If you're thinking your teenagers sailed through, then you've missed something.

I'm so tired of raising teenagers.
They're moody, lazy, selfish, sulky, self indulgent, single minded, self obsessed, dirty, messy, rude.....and then their mood swings & they're helpful, chatty, sweet, thoughtful, washing, tidying and complaining about their siblings who are grumpy as if they have no memory of the mood they had just an hour earlier.
I'm so glad I was never a teenager.

Yesterday I was told (by my 16yo after a consequence was enforced) that I'm just like teenager: agree to one thing one day, change my mind the next. I just smiled, I can see the iorny but, of cause, from my perspective its completely different.

Welcome to the forums Steelcat.
Your 3 aren't teens yet are they? (I noticed you're 29 & I'm a decade older, my 3rd has just reached 13).
We have a girl off our own that is 6 .
