Well said, Sir William.
Sir Brian:

By then, they're conscious of consequences that can happen and choose for themselves what they wish to do; it is not the parents' fault if they err, so worry not. You can't do anything about it anyway. lol

I've taken the liberty to bold the text in red of the three key words in Sir William's post that will helps get parents through those teen years! ;)
Thorsteinn:
Teen years will mean I'm 47 & Tamalyn's 38 when that happens.
B. Patricius:
Oh Lord help us...
Thorsteinn is going to have a minion! :D

so any cool norse names in the works?
lil fatherly advise that i am learning:
never go to bed angry
Talk to your children not at them
counting to 10 does work in situations
if children are making you frustrated, look at yourself first and see if you are the issue and they just don't understand.
teach your children the way they shall go and they will not depart from it. even as young ones, give them "chores" let them help and it won't be an issue when there older.
Hugs and kisses will make all your troubles melt away.

I couldn't have said it any better than Sir Wolf. My adopted daughter, she's the light of my life now, and the little half-pint's talking now! :D
Really, talking to them, and with them, no matter their age I think changes everything when it comes to the little ones growing up. Little Kira only screams when playing "scary" and has hardly a temper on her. She has TONS of attitude and plenty of sass hamming it up for the camera, but she's a very polite little 30 month old.
congrats brother, this is what it's all about.
Lord Chagatai:
Congrats.....and remember they grow fast cherish very moment with them!!!!
