I remember being a blankedy blank teenager and yet when my kids are saying they hate me and we aren't a true family and blah blah it cuts me to the bone. I wish I could tell them everything I did wrong and what I learned from it and they would listen. But let's face it, they won't. I think God intended us to have this trial and error period. It helps us seperate from our families when it is time and yet have our parents there to catch us when we fall til that time comes. You have to hope you train them in the way they should go and they will return to it.
As for periods. My sister in law is a third grade teacher and she tells me that over 1/2 her class has their periods. I heard something about the floride in the water affecting our cycles. When I was in school only one girl started (that we knew of ) in forth (plus my cousin from a different school). It has to be something different.
My boy, who has been the apple of my eye. He has never failed to do all that I asked of him and more. He stood by and held my hand as we went through terrible times together and told me how much he loves me. I never thought I would love a boy like I do. Anyway, he is the one who suddenly thinks that we are ignorant and he knows all. He thinks our family is horrible and he wants to live with his grandparents. Well, if his grandparents had been my parents I would want to live with them too. But when they were my parents they were not so great and surely not as forgiving!
I guess we have to PRAY PRAY PRAY! |
