My husband is brand new to the practice of parenting and has been ‘thrown to the lions’ because he went from bachelor to parent of TEENS by uttering the simple words “I do” – and yet he made an interesting (and enlightened) statement yesterday.

He said “It amazes me that teens believe they are immortal, and yet they REFUSE to do any planning for the future.”

I found it to be quite astute, and thought I’d share it with the rest of the world trying to properly parent teens — against all odds.

Cheers (and blessings) to all of you undertaking that super-human feat!
