the worst thing you can do as a parent is give/bribe your kids with electronics and crap and not giving them physical love and intimacy(like, hugging and such not abuse them >>) when they need it.
wtf is with teenagers
so its my friend's birthday party, lets call her Kayla, turned 16 I think. Awhile ago someone's mom, i think Kayla's, came by the pool pissed off since they caught who I believed to be Kayla drinking. 20 minutes or so later, I see Kayla walk by finishing a beer and someone else's mom saying sorry and ****.
There is an older man sitting over near my desk in the little lounge area, and he is alone, but people who don't know him keep coming over and talking to him... it's like he has some influence drawing strangers in to talk to him? It's really weird, this is like the 3rd person I have seen come and pull a chair up to him and start just talking about everything?
