My 17 yo child is in a baaad mood

[Serena]

She hates it when she realizes she got some of her stubborness from me.
She chose the wrong week to have a temper tantrum.

[NHAnn]

I can relate ;)
A hug to you both.

[Miss Jasmine]

I think it's time for a mother-daughter hug. Hang in there. :teeth:

[Serena]

Actually, after I grounded her, she took off. I don't know where she is.

And she has realized by now that her plans for this weekend have all of a sudden got cancelled.

[The Mystery Machine]

gosh I am so looking forward to this....NOT!

[JasonLyons]

kill her ;) im joking, you people with out a sense of humor

[Boots]

{{{{{HUGS}}}}

[Serena]

I'd be worried about her, but frankly, I feel sorry for anyone who crosses her path.

I think she's in my rv though. I hope.

[Serena]

She's back, silent and in her room.

[browneyes]

You're really making me look forward to my kids being teenagers, Laurie.;)

{{hugs}} It's tough being 17.

[Serena]

Actually she was looking more like three there, it was funny and I don't think she appreciated my sense of humor. lol

[Wagamama]

I was 17 once....actually 5 years ago...wow. I was a major pain in the tush when i think about it...How my parents survived is beyond me....Tell your daughter i know exactly what she's going through!!!

[Serena]

:)

I remember I was a pain as well, just not in the same ways.

My mom cursed me. She told me she hoped I had a daughter just like me. :eek: :eek:

[Wagamama]

mine did too...i don't think i want kids anymore!!! especially if there gonna end up like me!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

[mom2boys]

Serena - I feel for you. I too was an strong willed kid. My mother placed the same curse on me. And I got him. He's 7 & thinks he is king of the world - or should be anyway. My mother didn't live to see him but I swear she hand picked him just for me. Like a big fat practical joke she is playing on me. :rolleyes: His brother is the total opposite.

[Serena]

It's like, let's see if you can survive the first one, then we'll make the second a little easier. lol


Thanks mom. :p :D

[TINKTWINS]

I feel for you, I have the curse too and hes 161/2. Its almost a daily battle over something. Do they really beleive we know nothing at all? My other kids are nothing like him. Thank god.

[mhopset]

Laurie~ Just pray that your DD will one day (in the future) be blessed with a daughter!;) ;) ;)

This teenager stuff is scary..... I'm NOT looking forward to it!:eek:

[piratesmate]

My mother tried to curse me that way, too. :( I hated when she said that! It's something I tried very hard to avoid saying to my children.

I appreciate my parents & think they did a decent job of raising us. (Look how great I turned out! ;) ) However, I was determined I wouldn't do some of the things to my kids that I hated when Mom did them. You know, it's funny. I wouldn't say that my kids are "exactly like" me - in the bad ways. They've found their own ways of trying my patience.

Hang in there Serena! They do outgrow it, but then they move out. :(

My 13 yr old is almost constantly in a bad mood.:(

Don't ya just love those teenage years:(

[Serena]

Well today she has lost it. :( She's been crying every since I got home. She's been telling me over and over how sorry she is. Telling me how horrible her week and yesterday was, that she's sorry she took it out on me.
