Parenting Teens: Hear Me Growl

I threatened to hang up on my poor sister today. I told her in no uncertain terms I didn’t want to hear it! My husband who while working from home usually doesn’t notice what I am doing and with whom came strolling through the living room with a look of speculative concern today, wondering with whom I was conversing on my cell phone.

The topic, my teens.

My very patient sister had the unmitigated gall to attempt to stop me mid rant with
                     …..advice… growl

                 than she tried encouragement…..snarl

Usually I am reasonable. We give and take advice freely, we pray for each other’s kids and we share some of the same struggles in completing the task of parenting our kids to adulthood.

                           Not today…..

               She assured me several times she will pray for my kids. I don’t think she dared to tell me then she would be praying for me also.

                                But I know she will.

                    The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. .James 5:16
