• When Did My Kid Become an Adolescent?…  and Would I Rather Have My Kid Back? - Judith Sachs: The adoring child who giggled at your jokes and gave you hugs “just because” seems to have vanished inside a sullen, critical young woman or man who often challenges your ideas and resists your love. Much as we want to turn the clock back, we can learn a lot about our parenting styles by adapting to this new person in the family (who isn’t so new after all).
