[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 509252, member: 6705"] OMG, hands down, GIRLS, whether they're difficult children or NOT!!! OK, this is from personal experience, I was technically "easy child" but OMG, I do NOT know how I survived my teen years. It didn't help that I was so very much like my Mom - we butted heads constantly. Now, from Onyxx and Jett - Onyxx has more baggage than Jett, but he learned to withdraw like a turtle. So there are different things to deal with. But... Onyxx was the reason I found this board, and though Jett has stuff I vent about... Mostly, he's not so bad. Just exasperating. Hardly self-reliant at all - and that's what I'm aiming for. ...He told Onyxx he was "never" getting his drivers license, because people could always drive him around. She told him we WOULDN'T and he'd have to WALK. Oh, HORRORS - WALK? So the kid who I am afraid to have on the road, wants hers, the one I'd be more comfortable with, doesn't. Go figure. [/QUOTE]
