You have my sympathy. Teenagers are both the best and the worst at the same time.

I sympathize. My teenager has reached the sullen, I hate everything you do and say, you are the dumbest person to ever walk the planet phase. I'm locked in my bedroom drinking wine where it is peaceful.  |

There's a reason why they are assholes at this age. Makes it easier to kick them out of the nest when they come of age.

Mine are 21 and 23 and living at home going to school and working. Apparently the dorm was not their jam. Thankfully by this age they are back to being delightful and really aren't home much. |

I hear you. Mine is 17. Overall, a great kid. I know we are lucky. He hasn’t given us major problems. A couple weeks ago, my exH and I were discussing how much DS has matured in the past year. Feeling pretty good about the end of the teen years and all that. Then, he whips out the ‘tude within days of that talk. I really enjoy who DS has become as a young man, but some days, he likes to test my love.

I actually said to mine, about 10 minutes ago, that I really made a mistake when I didn't eat him when he was young and tender. Freaking took the wet dirty clening cloths, that the cleaning lady put in the washer, out and set them on a pile of clean folded towels. Then had the audacity to give me an eyeroll when I questioned what his thinking was. Grrr.

I feel your pain. We were mean because according to our daughter. ..we want to know where she goes and who she was with....omg....we are so mean.
Or my favorite was when she told the school counselor that we stole her phone. But wait, the counselor actually called and asked if we would give her back "her" phone. To which we replied we bought it and took it away and would not be giving her back our phone.
She had to get a job and pay for a new phone and her cell bill.
Ughhhh....it gets diffrent as they grow.

My almost fifteen year old daughter has stopped speaking in sentences. Everything we say is met with one of two responses, "Lit" or "So?"

Dd walks around with her iPod and earphones in her ears. I think talking to a wall would be easier.

Hahaha. I'm ready "Yes, your teen is crazy" by Bradley and it's very enlightening. Their brains just aren't working right (really) and it IS all about me. When they did studies and showed teens pictures of people, they were all - as a whole - unable to tell whether the person's face showed fear, etc. But every adult could see it. It is interesting to say the least.
And I've got three!! So I feel your pain!

I get this too and completely sympathize with you. Then I think about what a misfit I was as a teen and thank my lucky stars  |

My teenager thinks he knows it all so he moved out (his choice). I now have a nice little craft area. I say area because he hasn't moved all his crap out of his former bedroom.

My 17yo thought that she should be allowed to go to a friend's lake house after Homecoming with the co-ed group of friends with a college age sibling as the only chaperone. Hahahahaha!
Then she said 'what do you want me to do, come home at 10 and sit in my room?!' Geez. You are not going to a (basically) unsupervised co-ed sleepover out of town. Isn't she just precious, bless her heart!

I understand completely! I have 2 dd's, one who is 19 and at times a wonderful human other times I feel she is the spawn of evil. My other dd is 20 and although she is developmentally delayed we, stupidly, thought she wouldn't go through the traditional "teen" years and we were sooooo wrong. She is developmentally and mentally about 13 and sometimes she rolls her eyes so hard I think they won't come back around! Most of the time I get my sweet, adorable, caring, lovey dovey girl but we are starting to see a teenager in there and I'm scared! LOL
