I COMPLETELY agree--especially girls and they can keep them until about 16-17. Having 2 daughters and 3 granddaughters go through that stage, I can tell you, they're not human.

It gets worse! Mine passed her driver's test yesterday! [smilie=battingeyes.gif]
(Kinda weird, she won't be 16 til next Thursday, but now they let them take their tests early, they just don't give them the license til they have their birthday . . .)

No worries, Mal.....

You've got a great kid, and you've given her the best gift ever. Your time. Yes, you gave her Love, and Guidance, of course...But you gave of yourself and that's wonderful!

I had a great one too...8th grade is the only time I had to punish her...Once. That's all it took.

(When you pack them all up and wake the other parents up at 2:00 am, to take them home and make them tell what they did? The lesson kinda stays with them... :lol: )

((((((((((Mal & Victoria)))))))

My first thought was "oh no, she's going to drive!" My second thought was "Holy crap! After driving kids arounhd for more than 21 years, I'm done!"
