Ab Fab Friday's - What are your favourite things about your teen/s? 8th December @8pm (AEDST)

Message contains an image

Join us this Friday 8th December @ 8pm (AEDST) for Ab Fab Friday's!!! 

 

This week's topic is 'What are your favourite things about your teen/s?'

 

Parenting can be such a tough gig, and we often find ourselves frustrated with our teens and sometimes even feeling like we don't like them much, despite loving them. This week I'd like us to focus on the things that we do love about our teens. My caseworker used to do this with me when I was at my wits end, and I found it really beneficial as it gave me a different outlook and the energy to keep going.

Hi @Nick-RO  My week was alright... not the worst, but not the best.   However, super glad I dont have to go to work tomorrow. How was your week?

Such a busy time of year - I have been feeling a little bit frazzled!  Yay for a Saturday off though.  Going to try and relax this weekend but my schedule is rapidly filling in there too Smiley Happy

Haha, reading the messages I see that! It must be something in the air!!

 

What's been going on for you guys?

 

I wasn't sure I'd be in the mood for this topic tonight after today, but everything's settled now thank goodness.

Having had the repair after a crappy day though, does actually remind me of something I love about my daughter...her ability to say sorry and calm herself fairly quickly after an explosion.

 

What about you guys @Zoesplace and @Nick-RO?
