I had three two boys and one girl.
I can say this, I think I could have raised five boys compared to the
ONE girl? LOL.
She tuned 13 and acted like she was 19, alot of work to set her stright?
LOL But she did make it to and past 19?
God moves in mysterious ways??? Amen.
AND YES, I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER....

Well even tho my daughter is only 3 and my oldest boy is 14, I can
honestly tell you that she is the one who's more complicated and that
ain't no lie. My son gives me grief but she gives me more of it.

You know I would really like to you what in the hell does, "....he's
just at that age" means. I am so tired of people telling me this. I mean
I know what it means but I just find it stupid that people say it when
you talk to them about all the trouble your teen is putting you thru. So
I guess I'll just pass the buck around and tell you that your 2
daughters are "just at that age".

I have 5 kids

24 daughter (she is working on #5 baby)
22 daughter (she is working on #2 baby)
21 daughter (she has 2 kids)
14 daughter
11 son (a whole lot easier than the girls)

I have been revenging my oldest daughter with spoiling her kids and
sending them back for years. Also love the part of if they cry they go
back to the parents. sooooooooooo much fun.

I have 4 boys, 24, 22, 21, 21. And god has blessed them with the smarts
to know that if they cant buy their own shoes they have no business
having kids.
I do have to say they are and for the most part have always been pretty
good guys. I also have to credit their dad for always being the biggest
part of their lives growing up even though we divorced when they were
young. Strong, respectful parents makes for great kids.

Well, guess ya might say that I'm one of the lucky ones too. Mine are
now boy 24-works in a machine shop for the last 5 yrs that has a little
girl 3 1/2 & a daughter that will 22 Wednesday - works full tiime in a
doctors office and goes to college full time. And well have to say my
daughter was the easy one to raise not a problem one with her straight
A's all the way to the 12th grade she was in the gifted and talented
classes. Honor student all the way through. Humm now my son well he did
enough to make up for both but still my little man. Seriously thought I
was gonna have to buy a 50gal drum of baby oil to slide him across the
stage to graduate. Awww but we made it, was not an easy road but he did
make it.

I am so pissed it is unreal! My 17 year old has been sexually active for
about 6 months, we have her on birth control as she also does not want
babies. She told me today she doesnt want to pay for them anymore as
they are to expensive, then she goes out and buys a 80 dollar jacket!
My insurance kicks back in on Jan 1 so for now she pays 32 for a month,
She is like MOM you pay for them, I said you are the one having the sex
not me you pay for them. I will probally wind up paying for them as I
will not allow her to go without. Anyone have any input?

Sorry about that Shagna but if it was me the jacket would be taken back
or the money for the pills forked over.

I was again lucky my daugter in the picture with me was not sexual
active until after she turned 21. And yes I know that for a fact she did
not even start dating till then and still has the same b/f which is a
Fireman told ya she was my angel.

But my son lets just say he has sowed his oats more than enough but....
he did use proctection at least sometimes lmao. Yep I said sometimes for
I do have a 31/2 year old grandbaby girl from him which is my little
angel now lmao. Gawd I hope she don't turn out like her daddy in that
area.

Shagna the only input i can give you is to tell her that BC isn't 100%
sure to stop *babies*..lol as you put it..lol... i was on BC when i was
15 and i took them EVERYNIGHT at the SAME time..and well i have a
beautiful baby boy... TELL HER TO BE SAFE!!! CONDOM CONDOM
CONDOM!!!....lol.... but i would make her pay for them.... i'm guessing
she is on the pill... but i suggest the Depo shot.. she would get a shot
in her butt or her arm every 3 mths.. i love it!!! it is awsum and no
more period..lol witch means NO money spent on tampons..LOL..hahahahahaa
i have been on it sence my son was 6 mths old. and i havn't had a period
for over 2 1/2 years and u think oh that isn't good...not healthy.. well
there is nothing not healthy about it.. no egg drops.. no need to flush
the system...to clean the *yummy* stuff out...lol... If u have insurance
like u said it will probly be about the same.. BUT only every 3 mths..
go in for 10 mins and u get a shot and ur on ur way... well there is my
input...~~SHERRIE~~

We tried the depo shots but she has her period everyday for 3 months,
They said it was just to strong for her. I cant tell her to take the
jacket back as she works hard for her money and if she choose to spend
it irrisponsible then that is her choice when she doesnt have the money
to pay for her cell phone thats just to bad.
I am trying to talk to her and go that route on the importants of bein
responsible, but she is being a stubborn ass!
She uses condoms even being on the pill and she has had the same
partner.
I am just pissed as I try really hard to instill good morals and value
and she is not listening, As I always say you have no control over
anyone but yourself but she is my daughter and I want what is best!
