at least you still have hair. what i still have is turning grey too.

Keep the grey, it looks distinguished on men. Shoot I have a sophomore and a junior. We are into boy friends and driving. We've even been looking at colleges this summer.

At this rate I'm just hoping I keep some hair. Mine is moving from grey straight to white. Maybe I can grow the beard out and play Santa.

I cannot even imagine this. Boyfriends? Cars? Prom night? Kill me now.

My daughter will graduate college in Dec and Monday is my son's 1st day of college. Middle school and high school can trying times for both parents and kids. Their circle of friends has a huge impact, peer pressure is a very powerful thing. Be involved in their lives, keep open communications about ALL topics and develop a level of trust. Stick to your guns, be consistant and above all make sure you tell them how much you love them.

Had 7 7th grade girls sleep over at the lake house, was actually a lot of fun, tubing swimming, campfire and all slept in a big tent on the porch.

Next weekend , 10 15 yr old girls coming to repeat the same.

Maybe the absolute best advice I've ever read on this forum. Thanks!

Agreed Drew. Thanks!

Great words form VA LSV. But like Ron I've got girls (grades 8 & 12), so the only thing I'd add to

...Stick to your guns, be consistant and above all make sure you tell them how much you love them.

Would be to take those guns out & polish them frequently in the presence of their male friends.
