MammaMia I wish I could thank you a thousand times. Are you sure you aren't my daughter?
I was a single Mom faced with exactly what you are describing from my children once they reached age 11 or so and it was all choas after that. There were times when I said to them: Good, call the kid's help line and tell them I want to report Mother Abuse!!!
But you see, up until age 10 my children were raised with love and discipline and rules and fun in equal measures and I stand by my tried and true rule - COMMON SENSE!
That is exactly why my children turned out to be fantastic people once they survived their teenage years
