As parents, we learn that we quickly lose control of those growing things we call “children” soon after puberty begins to set in.

We do the best we can, and hope the first five years of love and guidance will sustain them (and us) through the Rough Spots. My son is nearly 50, and I’m having more trouble with him now than I did in the last 45 years. Period.

One never knows...

But one must NEVER, ever stop loving them or stop praying for guidance, for both them and you. And above all, hang in there. ;o])
