[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 210862, member: 1550"] Hi there :) A big welcome here. I've been through three teens already (ugh) and I have a 15 yr. old boy and a 12 year old girl. I had one child who was um challenging to say the least. We never gave up on her--she's now 24, back in college, has had a boyfriend for six years (I call him my son-in-law, although they haven't married) and she is a fantastic cook--won many state contests and is going into Pastry Arts. This daughter took every drug under the sun and a few more...now she won't even take an aspirin. She is all-naturale. I think that if we try really hard there are many kids who will one day decide "I don't like my life and I'm changing it" which is what happened with my daughter. Not all kids come around, and it's not the parent's fault in my opinion. After they turn about 17 there is little we can do if they make bad choices. Legally, we run out of options. But it's so great that you're involved. Too many parents don't seem to care about what their kids are doing. Can't wait to hear more about you and your family. My little history is below this post. Welcome again :) [/QUOTE]
