Oh my Ryn you have such big ideas and plans for your child already, that can only lead to disappointment and him rebelling from you.

Soul don't listen to anyones crappy judgments, I think you are doing a great job and i think you are an inspiration to me on how i want my relationship with my daughters, i would way rather be involved in their decisions by being open and honest and trusting and i just dont get how people who don't have teenagers can tell you what you are doing is wrong I DON'T GET THAT.

You can only imagine what it is like and that would be a far stretch from how it really is.

I think it is utterly disrespectful for anyone to say that you are doing a bad job or that you are daft for choosing to parent the way you are, very rude i believe.

I felt it was a personal attack on you too and i have no idea what Ryn's sex life with her dh has anything to do with it.

Anyway like i said before i think you are doing a great job and my mum was very open with me and we still have a fantastic relationship and lets face it all we can do is guide our children so they can make the best decisions possible and that is exactly what you are doing.
