I'm 27, and I'm starting to listen to my parents again. my poor parents. Thank god for unconditional love. I've given them a lot of criticism, and avoided them for almost 10 years now. It's starting to get better, but I've been so hurt and so distant for so long. Hard to get into the groove of having a mother, and yet still being an adult...

p.s. you sound like a great mom with a great kid. Keep up the good work. Your boy will tell you what he needs to know. Don't forget what it was like to be his age. And know his friends. If his friends are trouble, you'll know something is up. A barometer of teenage pressure.
