[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Big Black Bear Let me just leave you all with one additional thought: There is absolutely a time in everybody's life where they are entitled to judge their parents as a peer and criticize every irritating personality trait and every choice they've made. That time is not while they are living under the roof, eating the food, and enjoying any other benefits that are provided for them.[/quote] Probably the only worthwhile post BBB has made. Wise words. You aren't on their level, you haven't been on both sides of the fence. These people have, you've only been a teen so far.
