Welcome Adults...

Hello, Sir/Ma'am. ;)

Greetings! Well, I'm not really sure what to tell ya to make your lives better. You see, I am a teenager and I'm not aware of the problems that adults have. Still, I will try to give you some tips.
First of all, you should respect your kids. Give them independence, even though it's pretty hard. I know you care about your children, you don't want them to get into trouble, but sometimes you must let them make their own mistakes. If you have children that are young, buy them something nice once in a while, but never wait for them to ask you for something! Try to surprise them, because if you buy the something nice and they will be surprised by it, it will make the child twice as happy. And you don't have to buy anything expensive, just something to show them you love them, and care about them.
If you have teenage kids, you must be especially patient with them. You must never forget about your childhood, you must remember you were once a teenager. Don't tell them you don't like their music, don't tell them to turn it down. And don't buy them clothes they will never wear. You shouldn't bother them too much because they are busy enough. If you start bothering them, you might get screamed at, so better not bother them.
You must gain your kid's respect, tell them you are there for them. And telling them isn't enough, you must prove yourself somehow. do something to show them you care. I can't tell you what exactly you should do, I don't have all the answers... you must decide for yourself. But you must make your teenage son/daughter understand that if they have any problems, they can come to you for help. If you promise something, keep your word, don't lie. In other words, gain your children's trust.
Most of you out there work, and are very busy. However, you must find time to spend with your children. Most teenagers start using drugs because they feel lonely. They feel their friends are the only people they can turn to... because parents just don't spend enough time with them.
You should also learn to forgive, that's the most important thing. If you encounter rudeness, ignore it! If you ignore it, you will be awarded, if you answer with an insult, you will pay for it. If anyone does something bad, he/she will pay for it. And you are not the one to punish them. So just move on with your lives, be happy, think positive thoughts, send out positive energy, and you will be rewarded.
Well, thats it for now. I am a very busy guy, and I don't have much spare time to update this page. So if you want this page updated, please E-Mail me, and tell me you appreciate what I'm doing and that I should update this page. If you won't E-Mail me, I will not update this page.
