If you haven’t seen Mean Girls, well I just feel sorry for you. You should watch it. Really. It’s hilarious and you’ll enjoy seeing Lindsay Lohan when she was funny and still a very good actor.
In three months two of my children will graduate high school. Of the four I have only one will still be at home. It’s an odd feeling. I have spent my entire adult life as a parent. When you start popping them out at 18 you don’t get much time being a normal adult with minimal cares. While I’m at the tail end of full time parenting, so many of my friends are still at the beginning. I am not even going to lie, it’s kind of nice to watch them maneuver the early stages of parenting and know I’ve already done that and been there. It’s especially gratifying to see them realize that all their unsolicited “parenting advice” they gave to me when they were in their childfree days was crap.
Parenting is freaking hard, it’s not one size fits all. Each of my kids needs me to be a different parent, which let me tell you, only adds to mess that is my brain. I am by no means considered cool by my kids and I want to think I have come to terms with it. They, on the other hand, might think differently.
