Parenting solo can be like flying without wings. A very tough and challenging job but can be most fulfilling.
I have the toughest job raising my 15 year old boy. Rearing him up when he was in his younger years was a joy and a rewarding job to me.. it was my most memorable years with him as we are like friends play together and laugh... but now that he had grown into a young boy.. he seem to be different child i had reared up. He doesn't listen to mom anymore and do things in his own way and wont budge to anything i say. He comes home late sometimes and what worries me, he might be with the wrong company of friends. Is there anything I can do to make my son listen up and do as mom says? I might sound authoritative but i am just worried.

Hi,
Teen age is the most crucial stage i think. I have experienced it with my teenage boy too. He started to explore him self and want to be on his own. He seem to think that he knows almost everything and wont listen to everything i say. I started to ask friends and read books about how to handle a teenager so that makes me mellow down. At first it was so hard but i finally understand that he can be more responsive if i talk to him like he is a friend and never impose on him but just let him choose which he think is good but i am always there to guide him.

mums and sons can be very close discussing this subject , sometimes better than the fathers , who normally discuss it in a more vulgar manner, its all part of learning Jade and he seems to have a very good understanding mum with you , good luck,

I think its good thing to educate kids about sex than suffer the stigma of not knowing the thing when they get old.

Being single mom is the toughest job i could imagine which i am a single parent myself.. but it still a rewarding job that we could ever get .. single mom tends to give everything to a kid because they think no dad around so we tend to spoil them etc but we can always be balance about everything LOVE and ATTENTION plays the major part of raising a kid. i think diciplining a kid in an early age can be a big help when they reach thier teens of course there would be always love not just by words but by showing it aswell.. it doesnt mean that we should always DO EVERYTHING to make our kid satisfied sumtimes we should try to be hard on them to make them learn and appreciate US when they get mature.. happy Mothers to all of US.. :-)

Happy Mothers'Day to all moms out there especially to my Mama.. Happy Mother's Day.
Truly there isnt as noble work as we parents do in raising our kids. Its a job of passion and love. It's the job where the future of our kids are determined and our success as parents lies.
Congratulations to my parents for a job well done they did to me and my siblings.... truly its when you are an accomplish adult that you can understand why your parents had been so strict in raising u up as a kid... I do understand now being a mom myself.

Hey SJ, you are right. When i was a kid, i used to freak out when i cant get my way in all things i want. I realized no parents want their kids harmed and this is why moms and dads are always there to protect their kids. I knew this when i have my own now and i am over protective of them too.
You never know how it is when you never experience the joy and the bliss of being a mom.

Mod's Note:
I must add, so us poor dads, miss out all the time i can never become a mum, our feelings are there aswell,, but i know wat you mean belledonne
