No. Having teenages just makes you go grey quicker and raises your BP. Especially when they go through that lazy stage and wont get out of bed to get a job........ (i feel a rant coming on).

It's made me completely reassess what it means to be a parent and changed my expectations of both myself and my kids, and also made me rather more understanding of my own parents and some of their responses when I was a teenager.

I feel my parents' frustrations!!!

Makes me re-assess how I treated my mum!
