Little children, headache; big children, heartache. ~Italian Proverb
Adolescence is perhaps nature’s way of preparing parents to welcome the empty nest. ~Karen Savage and Patricia Adams, The Good Stepmother
The best substitute for experience is being sixteen. ~Raymond Duncan
There is nothing wrong with today’s teenager that twenty years won’t cure. ~Author Unknown
You can tell a child is growing up when he stops asking where he came from and starts refusing to tell where he is going. ~Author Unknown
When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years. ~Mark Twain, “Old Times on the Mississippi” Atlantic Monthly, 1874

“Animals of teenagers KNOW why animals EAT their YOUNG!” LOL!!
When I married my husband, I had 3 young children, oldest was 8.
He had 6 children… half grown… Still at home were 12, 15, and 18. THAT was a WHOLE NEW GAME!! On mother’s day, the 20 yr old gave me a plaque with this quote on it. Haha!
Hubby constantly assures me that teenagers USUALLY grow up to be HUMANS! So FAR that has proved TRUE! YAY!! ;D
