There are methods behind what appears to be my 13-year-old’s madness.I am learning his own unique reasoning applies to most things in his life as we move through his maturation. It’s clear he likes to do things his way and prefers to not divulge details behind his rationale. If we try to take a deep… Read more »

Parenting seems to be all about the juggle.Regarding balancing her work career with raising kids, best-selling author Nora Roberts once said, “It’s too damn hard to keep everything in the air, and that’s a pressure we don’t need to put on ourselves.

The last couple weeks have confirmed for me it’s time for the kids to get back in school.When neither kid has the desire, energy or enthusiasm for the beach, pool, Boardwalk, amusement parks or water parks on a summer weekend day, I think the summer doldrums have set in.

The word “sleepover” makes me cringe whenever the request is made.For one thing, the term is a misnomer. A more accurate word would be “stayover” because just about everything happens except for sleep.I dread these stayovers. I want my son to have fun with his friends.
