I was a stay at home mom until mine were teenagers and I truly believe that I should have been here during their teenage years, but circumstances changed and I had to go to work. They still need so much protection during these years, but freedom to make their own choices and live with the outcome, good or bad. We've come to a place where friendship are developing between us, yet I still have to have that discipline. It's a tough road to walk, raising teenagers...thankfully Someone carries me and holds my children in His hands. I've heard that teenagers need moms at home as much as toddlers, if not more.
