this morning I was sitting in the office at my son's school, the kids sitting waiting to see the principle i knew my name. They were all sitting there not understanding what they did wrong, one called a teacher a retard another spit spit balls and my told his teacher he hated her and then skipped detention.  The spitballs I understand I did that myself not that it was right, but calling a teacher a retard or telling them that you hate them is just wrong.  What should we do as parents to these children that want to be in full control of every situation..

Our dear children think that we where never teenagers. Being a young parent myself has many advantages and disadvantages. It helps to know mostly what my child is thinking before he does react on his thought.  There isn't much that we haven't already done ourselves.  Even in the short time since i myself was a teen you couldn't get me to be a teenager these days.  junior high and high school is a scary thought for many!  We as parents need to take the time and be there for our kids more now then ever and remember and understand what they are going through and not rush to judge..
