[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 623602, member: 1550"] Twelve was the age when I noticed that my boy children (not girls) sort of detached from being with the family as much. 36, who was joined at my hip and still is in a way, started hanging out in the basement, watching TV alone there, who knows what else? Even Sonic got more involved in other things. Scott was never home, always on his bike going here and there. I don't think that pulling away a bit is abnormal. He IS a teenager. I don't know why he is cranky. Maybe he doesn't feel well yet. Maybe it's his age too. That's when 36 got REALLY nasty. I ain't seen nuttin' yet until he hit 12/13. He was never pleasant to others, but he had been sort of like my buddy until then and after puberty kicked in, NOBODY was in his good graces. He also started doing more wrong things, such as rabid shoplifting, which he was very good at. His friends were awed because he could shoplift over and over again and never get caught. But he didn't get that daring until he was near his teens. Your son will probably never change to the bad as much as 36 did. He may just recovering from surgery plus increased hormones. Hopefully you'll have your easy child back to normal in a few weeks. Good luck :) [/QUOTE]
