I've got three kids on the cusp on teenagerhood and they're all great kids. But I'm hearing so many people on the forums here saying that they had great kids too, and now all they want is their great kids back, because they've got grumpy, sullen, miserable teens.
So how do I stop this? At the moment, they all three do housework and help out around the house, do their homework, and are polite and well-mannered. How do I keep them this way? Is there something I"m missing that turns great kids into rotten teens (apart from hormones) and what can I do to help keep my kids as great people? Or is this just a phase they all go through?
What do people think, especially the mums whose kids were awesome until recently becoming teens, or mums whose teens were horrible and are now back to being great people again?
