We are rounding out our last month or so of elementary school.  The kids have been registered for high school and all those fun life changes that go with children aging are upon us (much to my chagrin!)  I'm wondering what it's really like to have a couple of teenagers in the house.  Does anyone have any insight they could offer on life with teens?



Hold me, I'm scared.

Hold me, I'm scared.

My son is only twelve, so I can't say from personal experience what two teens at home would be like..



Renee is the expert about that..



Do you mean they are going into senior high?



Is there junior high where you live?

There is no junior high so they are going into high school which is grades 8 to 12.  Both my midgets are still only 12 but they have December birthdays which is why they are starting high school in September.

My daughter will be sixteen this year..



She doesn't enjoy spending time with her family..



She'd rather be with friends..



Hopefully this phase won't last too long.

If you did the ground work you should be fine. They have boundaries you have set and let them know you expect them to stay within those. It's not really any different. New boundaries can be negotiated as they get older. Change nothing until they have earned it. You're not there to be their friend.

It's history. A good number of students return for a fifth year to improve their grades and make their application for university more competitive.

I do not have kids, so I cannot speak as a parent. I know as a teen, I did not listen to my parents.
