Sorry Mother, I will take issue with you as I have outlined. However, I 'll agree to disagree if you prefer. Teens are great, I know, we have reared 4 of them but for all our sakes, we have to stop molly coddling them and make them stand on their own two feet.Teach them to mature positively and to make decisions and take responsibility and stop waiting around for "someone to do something". More than anything else, kids need parents to say stop and think and act.They need guidance, and parents also need to live up to their own responsibilities.Too often the parents just accept that the kids are "bored". Remember, its not your responsibility to ensure kids don't get bored, its their responsibility. Help them to live up to that responsibility by accepting that each and every "right" has an equal "responsibility". Cheers!
