Well, am I disappointed. Finals have come and gone, one graduation survived. This should be a time of relief for my 2 daughters. In other words there should be less drama and there is not! So no events or pressure and still we have drama, meaning it never goes away until they get older.
I used to look 5 years younger, now I’m appearing haggard, gaunt. Eviscerated is another appropriate word that comes to mind.
Yikes.

Talk about emotions in turmoil and running amok! One of my daughters just had her last day in high school and the yo yo emotions have left me car sick. Holy Toledo. The swings from Mt. Everest to the depths of the ocean are staggering. I may have to put her in quaranteen.

One of my teen daugthers is not happy at high school, like that should be a shock to her. That then entitles her to bring the wrath of God to anyone and anything about anyone and anything. Sounds like an excuse to me!

My daugher’s favorite $5.00 T-shirt was stained in the wash today. Had she an uzi in hand the family massacre would have been national news today.
We were all at fault in the conspiracy to ruin that T-shirt. As she exited the home the front door exploded off the hinges with the impact of the slamming.
Serenity continues to reign in the home (not)

The meltdowns and drama leading up to the SAT tests for my junior in high school made all over historical events pale by comparison.
The nastiness and self centered enough were brought to new levels. If she could have rendered the planet extinct, she would have. Incredible.

Our 16 year has resumed hiding “her food”. What’s hers is hers and you take your life in your hands should you think otherwise. She will only eat organic food, and if’ it’s been in the refrigerator for more than 5 minutes it’s no longer edible, according to her.
Anyone out there price organic food lately? Factor in zero shelf life and it adds up. She is so particular on food, it puts the rest of the family in a state of crisis. If she likes a particular dish, she’s like a rabid dog guarding a bone, extremely dangerous!

Both daughters had meltdowns this past week over finals, as if that is surprising. What incredible pressure they put on themselves.
When I offer support for their great efforts my head was promptly taken off and handed to me. “Dad, you don’t know the pressure we are under”. “We are not smart!”. Both girls are A students and somehow are not even slightly smart. Wonder where that puts me as a former high school B student. I don’t dare ask my daughters.
So now Christmas, and an opportunity for me to sink to new lows what with the completely out of touch gifts I will impose on my daughters. That feedback should be interesting.
Happy Holidays. By the way check out www.boldersearch.com

Lest her father humiliate his daughter in the health club by acknowledging her existence. The loss of face and stature among her peers would be incalculable.
The unspoken message here is, “Dad, hurry up and pay for the expensive health club, and then hurry up and go away. But before you hurry up and go away, where are the car keys”.
Needless to say, we take separate cars to the health club. Waiting to hear from other dads. Happy Holidays.

Life would be too easy without teenage daughters. My 17 year old woke up this morning with a head cold, and pronounced it my fault since our humidifier chose not to work in the middle of the night.
My 16 year old is preparing to go to work at Target and pronounced, again, how she hates school, hates all the girls at school, hates her teachers, and hates her volleyball and tennis coaches. It was kind of her to refrain from mentioning she hates her father. Such a positive attitude!
So the day has started and I am in the familiar position of running for cover!
Come on dads, chime in. Happy Saturday and check out www.BolderSearch.com

Our younger teen daughter, age 16, wakes up each morning in a decidedly uncharitable mood. Interpretation, she is sullen and withdrawn.
Her sister, brother, mom and dad have all learned to direct such combative statements such as “good morning” in other directions. No sense enraging the queen with such rude remarks.
I used to think her silence was actually a blessing, see above, no sense pissing off the queen. But now I’m not so sure - silent animosity vibes are palatable, if you call the house shaking palatable. A lot of teenage hostility built up, we try to relieve the pressure by gentle opening the valve but it’s absolutely at one’s own risk! We love her but holy toledo!!
Come on dads, chip in with your stories and fates.
