    Totally laughed out loud! I was the taxi, the youth sponsor, with a pool in the back yard and a street full of cars when my kids got older. When my youngest got on the bus for the first time, as he pulled out I’m doing the happy dance. One of my neighbors asked why I wasn’t sad…no more babies at home. I’m not sure what my reply was but my face had that expression you get when you’re certain they didn’t mean to sound THAT stupid! If it wasn’t for the getting up on time (for me, not them) I LOVED school days. Your posts are great!

    Laurie,

    This is one of the best articles I have read about teens. I have a 16 year old daughter, the girls are just as bad as the boys! When I go grocery shopping, my daughter texts her friends what we’re having for dinner and before long I have two or three or eight more mouths to feed. They girls eat like it’s their last meal and an hour later want what they didn’t finish at the first sitting. Now I’m not jealous or anything but not one of those girls look like they eat like full grown men!

    I was going to comment on my daughter’s bedroom but I don’t have the time to even get started talking about that disaster.

    Thank you for your humor, I added your website to my favorites!

    Rhonda

    I absolutely loved your commentary. You have one junior, try having 3 of them at one time, plus all of the friends. my husband called them eating machines, cause all they did was eat, sleep go to school and eat and sleep. Ugh! I have one left and he is still a machine. Costoc, Sams what the difference. I had to start by generic snacks, cookies and sodas. They did not care. Milk I have a cow that I had rented for milk. There was not end in site. they broke the teen years and now buy their own food, because all they cook is ramen noodles. Hahaha!

    Thank you so much! It’s always good to know I’m not alone. Teenagers are just a different kind of species, aren’t they? I try to remember the bad old days when I was a teen–but seriously. I don’t remember being like that. Of course, I might have blocked it out :)

    I can’t imagine more than one Junior. I already feel like I’m insane.

    Last, but not least, I also find the following readings extremely useful in my pursuit to be a better mom: Feed them 13. Tuck them in bed 14. Other chores – cleaning of our room and the toilet, laundry, etc.

    I won’t typically post comments on personal blogs, but I wanted to tell you that your posts are spot on and put together well. I work via the internet as a blogger. During my free time, I go through personal blogs to get insight and creative ideas. You know, I actually get paid for producing articles and other content similar to this. I’m 100% employed online, and earn considerably more now then when I was working my old tedious job. Anyways, the firm I produce for is hiring more people. I’m sure you’d be superb at it.
