Treasures in Odd Shapes
“Teens are pushing through that ugly, hard, horrid transition of life from child to adulthood and they desperately need a safe place to do it. Maybe it’s a good day to check your teens home environment. It used to be you checked for safety issues like plugging up all the outlets in your house, locking cabinet doors, covering those wicked edged coffee tables, etc. Now it’s time to do a safety check for teens.”
Ahhh, the teen years. How much freedom to you give them? When do you let them make their own mistakes without stepping in and fixing things? I thought that taking care of them as toddlers was a hard stage. It can’t hold a candle to what is to come. There is just soooo much to think about. And then you have to hope that you make all the right decisions.
This is the time when you help to shape them into the adults that they will soon become. When we get to the other side, I think medals should be handed out… because chances are that all that hard work has created a person you can be proud of!
