They would still do those things... because you are, and Richard was, a GREAT parent... so that despite all the agonies of recent years you have raised men-children who are normal teens, who behave like every other teenager ever has xxxxx <br />This is a huge deal, and you should be hugely proud of this wonderful achievement. Join the queue of every person who has parented to get the badge that says "How come one moment they are as grown up as me, and the next they may as well be 3 again - kicking off about nothing!" <br /><br />Love to you all, as always, Jacqui xxxxJacqui Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03578891563746272335noreply@blogger.com
