Or, at least, we try not to be that way! Check out www.therebelution.com when you feel frustrated with the next generation.

I know I did. I was even more obnoxious than I am now.

I will have to think of something else.<BR/><BR/>But I was thinking that somewhere between 16 and 18 humans seem to reach the pinnacle of their intelligence.... which unfortunately shrouds the sense of self preservation. Amazingly all their friends are just as brilliant as they are.... the adolescent brain trust, you gotta love it.<BR/><BR/>I must admit it was once fun to be free, living life without the use of logic, the understanding of finances, or the need for a 401K. If I could live like that again, I'd run for president on the Democratic ticket!Davidhttp://www.fireandgrace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-29188545874905897092009-03-31T13:19:00.000-04:002009-03-31T13:19:00.000-04:00I am with you my friend.

I had just told him that his choiced were to either get a job this summer or he would be assigned chores to do around the house. He said that it was not his home. He did not pay the bills for it and he would do chores when he owned his own home. Of course I did not reply as I would have liked. And in all honesty, he probably was trying to be funny and serious at the same time. It didn't sit well with me tho. I will have the last word and he will get a job. That is the last word. P.S. shortly after that conversation, he was cleaning his room, without any more prodding.:)Sherrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-81137843344013069392009-03-30T22:23:00.000-04:002009-03-30T22:23:00.000-04:00Hi Tony,Thanks for sharing that with us!

After arguing with her for a few moments, her response to me was "Mom, you chose this life, and if you want it done then you need to do it." I'm sure you can only imagine what I said next. Everyone one keps telling me that this too shall pass. Guess what, her turn is coming. I keep telling her that she will have a teenager one day.Olanoreply@blogger.com
