I take that back. I know one thing. It's hard. With no instant gratification. Which means if you are into instant gratification, you're a bit out of luck in this situation.
One of my Rowdy Boys is 12 and 1/2. It's the 1/2 that's important here, because that is where all the male hormones start raging. Trust me on this - if you think 12 is bad, just wait 'til that 1/2 rolls around.
He is moody. We argue.
He refuses to talk. I pry.
He picks on his baby brother. I mediate. A lot.
He is getting a mustache. I sigh.
Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we yell.
And sometimes.......
we dance!
