So this means that you never express opinions about anything to do with periods or pregnancy? Just checking.

I'll go further, as I told a friend on the arrival of their first (mine were late teens at the time) "I'd give you advice, but I don't know how mine are going to turn out yet"...the oldest is a year before heading into his 40's and that still stands...I think they're turning out fine, but...

Your job now is to keep them safe until they are capable of making better decisions! Once you get through this they grow into young adults you truly love to spend time with.

It’s the stage where you reap what you sow—at least 80%, then there’s a bit of random luck sprinkled in. Not easy. You’re tested continuously. And—it doesn’t stop at 18.

AMEN! I laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh when I remember rough toddler days. Don’t get me wrong, those days weren’t easy, but I had NO IDEA how much stronger I’d have to become to have teenagers. Bonus: they leave the nest and come back your best friends and really AWESOME ❤️

I say they are hormonally crazy insane, aggravating as shit, and I thought Covid made one want to drink, but now I believe it’s teenagers. At most times they were more mature at six.

Explain to him what hypothetically would have happened had you told his grandfather "Dad, read the room"

You've memory-holed what this kid put you through when they were two and a half.

My kids are your age so the grandkids are teenagers. One gave his father a wise crack, afterwards my son saw me smiling and asked, "What's so funny." "Now you know." I replied.

😂🤪. Mine got on a kick telling me I was back talking him, which I told him was impossible. Then on couple occasions said, “look me in the eye when you’re talking to me.” Which I informed him, ok tough guy 🤪 I’m not your buddies or on a video game.

Oof. Well, then, Josh, guess you gotta take the lead from the youngster. It’s perfectly apropos to throw out the old chestnut of the older I get the less I know.

Raised 4. If it’s any consolation, they circle back to tell you which stuff you were right about. First, it’s exhausting.

When a friend found out we were expecting a baby girl, he said it would be the best 12 years of your life! 🤨

My second is 10 y/o. The amazing thing is I do not feel anymore prepared. I actually look forward to “it” (raising a teenager) - has to be better this time
