Life with a teenager is unpredictable, to say the least.
From tantrums to showers of love, you never know what to expect from one minute to the next, but you can be assured that no matter what strange and unusual things they do you are NOT alone.
We bet you can relate to at least half of these!
1. Their brutal honesty
13 y.o. : you shouldn't be wearing leggings

Me: what? why? they're yoga pants. do I have camel toe?
13 y.o.:
Me: never mind #lifewithateen
2. WHAT are they doing in there?!
Gives teen 2 hours to get ready. 2 hours later, teen - why you rushing me? #LifeWithATeen #SlowProgress

3. The struggle with their identity is real
To go out with me, 13YO puts on a crop top, shorts, tights with pandas on them, and a dragon tail. #lifewithateen

6. Nothing phases them...
I asked my son what was on his pants. He says "it's just lube, got hit with a condom". LOL #sexedcurriculum #lifewithateen

7. See? Unpredictable
Apparently the boy has decided he likes me again today. Mostly because he missed the bus and needs a ride. #LifeWithATeen

8. They are constantly chancing their arm!
No, I'm not going to call the school and tell them you'll be late because you've been arguing all morning. #LifeWithATeen
