storm, isn't teenagehood such a ride to go down with them!

I have a 15 and a half and a 14 year old, and omg they think us parents were born in the last shower!Is doens't have to get out of hand, it's all how you deal with it! My son the oldest out of five used to be a real bugger too, with lieing, but he has really grown up, after much patients with him and alot of punishing!

I tell him that there is no use in crapping with me becuase i have people everywhere that know his every move, and he will never be able to pull of a lie, cause it will just come back on him two fold. I also tell him that if he wants to start running his own life and having no rules while he is living in my house, then you can have his bags packed within minutes as there are plenty of childrens homes that would be willing to take him, and they are not the kind of place he wants to be living in, goodbye friends and hello hard rules!Mkae him see how his lieing made you feel, that you love him like nothing else on this planet, and you allowed him to have some freedom, which you see no problem with, but when he abuses that freedonm how the heck are you to trust him next time he wants to go somewhere. Does he want to to keep getting rid of his friend everytime they turn up to go somewhere with him, it would be humiliaiting for him. But you'll do it if he keeps lieing, and you have much more patienst so you can do it for as long as he breaks the rules.Tell him he will get sick of it alot quicker than you will!


I told my son that if I have to I will follow his every move or hire someone else to do it, and he didn't like the sound of that!

If he knows you eman it and you stick with it, he'll soon realise, omg she means it!

Goodlucks sweetness, its not an easy job rearing teenagers these days!
