Pre-teen Survival Tips?
Happy Birthday Sweetie! size My little boy turns 10 tomorrow, and while I’ve never been one to lament the passing of each developmental stage (I didn’t cry when he started kindergarten and not once have I looked back longingly to his colicky beginnings!), I have to admit this double-digit milestone is affecting me. Maybe it’s because he’s started doing that thing where he rolls his eyes in exasperation every time I speak. Or maybe it’s because “Mom” has become a three syllable word (as in “Oh Mo – o – om!” … cue eye roll). And so I have to ask: What’s a mother to do? Is 10 officially pre-teen? And if so, what can I do to remain “in parental control” while at the same time keeping the lines of communication – and the lines of affection – in tact? I’d love any and all advice from more experienced parents out there. When did your child enter the “Oh Mom you’re so embarrassing!” years, and how have you – and your kids – survived it? Happy Birthday Sweetie! (I promise not to call you that in front of your friends!)
