I give my four year-old rules now, which I believe offers a sense of borders and security. I felt the same way about my parents "rules" and expectations as a teenager. There was something stable. I knew what to expect. I don't like, for example, the idea of changing your pre-assigned dating age and compromising just because your daughter may be sneaking around.<br /><br />Having said that, I thought it was good insight into a teenage mind, and like I said-most of the advice rang true. I think it all amounts to communicating and listening to your teenager. And starting before they are teenagers.Jessie Oliveroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06232456334069794107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515903861204137058.post-8176463680367819402010-12-01T18:45:55.001-06:002010-12-01T18:45:55.001-06:00It is definitely a mystery at times.
