Sunday Gardening today !!

-- Quote of the Day --

“Parents just get too ridged in their thinking or operating in the world, whereas teenagers tend to be spontaneous so when parents can’t match that, this is where the source of troubles often arises. …if all  a parent does is get up at 6, go to work, come home and complain and then have minimal interaction with their teenager – and I’ve seen this where the teenager goes of alone or with friends and the parent gets their “me time”… but if we project that life is no good and all you do is work and then you die then we are not projecting that life is something fun. ” 

~ David Simonsen 

Today's quote was taken from the Raising Teenagers interview that aired on the Conscious Discussions Talk Radio show back on Jan 20... now available as an archived episode via the hyper-linked title here
