Our youngest is 9, we're already at the next stage and I'm not enjoying it one little bit. Having started early I'm hoping we'll be over the worst of it by the time she's 16
DS is 11 and after his birthday its like he has decided he is going to be another person - more decisive and speak his mind. Can I assume that this is the teenager in him coming out. Don't like it one bit. We seem to be arguing a lot. Have tried hard to keep calm as possible until his final exams were over - and then i was going to sort him out. But the exam has moved from tomorrow to next week - so need to hold out for a bit longer.
If anyone has tips etc. please send them my way. thanks!!!!!
