Why is parenting so difficult? Just when ya think ya got it figured out, bam another test comes along. I had to apologize to my son this evening and confess that I'm still learning how to parent. One thing I do know, keeping the lines open by admitting when your wrong is one thing that will help preserve the parent teen relationship.
Every opportunity I get to talk to parents with little kids I tell them wait till the teen years. After all, everyone said that to me when my kids were young the least I can do is share the truth with others. The reality...parenting is great and I wouldn't trade my kids for anything.
Life's an adventure...just step out and find out for yourself.
