So, I'm just wondering... purely hypothetically, of course... Where, exactly, is the line between "strict-but-fair mom" and "overbearing-and-codependent bitch"?
And no, she hasn't called me either one.
I have a feeling that parenting a teenager is a lot like parenting a toddler: by the time you figure out what works, it doesn't work anymore.
Sigh.
i would say that i agree with your analogy about parenting a toddler. it's a really really tough time for both the parent(s) and the kid(s).
