Comment by Monique on September 29, 2008 at 7:54am: Hi! Mom of two, a 16 yr old daughter and a 14 yr old son - both are now in high school, which makes some things easier (getting them to various activities for example) and some things harder (they seem to get along better at times, but when they don't it's much worse because they see each other during the days now!). Daughter is learning how to drive, and that in itself is enough for a nervous breakdown. However, love having them around, and being their mom. =D

Comment by Louella Kilmer Reagan on September 19, 2008 at 8:51pm: Hi! I'm the mother of a 14 year old introverted daughter who is so unlike me. I really struggle with wanting her to be a social butterfly like I was at that age. I also have a 12 year old daughter who thinks she's about 16. She is a total social butterfly and loves to gab just like her mother. I also have 9 and 8 year old girls who think they're much older too! We never have a dull moment in our house.
