"Money doesn't grow on trees!"

Parents often hurl this oft-repeated line at their teenage children, exasperated by their unending demands. Let your children find this out on their own.

Teens now a day seem to know everything. Heck they think we just exist for the shear pleasure of cooking them their meals and taking them where they need to go. Seems more than not, they love to talk back and yell. Why not yell they feel the louder they yell the more we will hear them and then they get mad when we do not understand and then they walk out stomping or worse, cussing!

Suicide, sex, and drugs are dangers for teens. Homemade abortions, risky behavior, unrealistic expectations of life, and many other perilous things can make a teen's life not only stressful and unmanageable, but short as well. Teens simply don't have the necessary skills to face these serious difficulties, or the inclination to take advice from parents. They rely almost exclusively on peers.
