iv kinda been dreading my kids getting to this point. my son will be 12 on the 23rd. and he will be going to 7th grade. all his 3 brothers are still in elementry school. i think iam dreading it and am more afriad for him then he is. he seems kool with it. i have had horeo storys of when there kiids get to junior high it all changes and the kids get bad. my son is awsome, smart, sweet, helpful. i have noticed. he is growing biger and taller. his shirts arent fitting like they did last summer. i think iam dreading this more. also he doesnt talk to me as much as he use to and i miss it. but iam not pushing it. is there any good advice u can give me. iam 1st time mom with a pre teen boys....thanks all. my baby is growing up tear tear....
LOL, best get used to it Momma, pretty soon he will be off to college.
Its hard!! My son is going into seventh grade as well... he's almost bigger than me now!
I also have 7th grader this year. It hard to see the changes. I still get hugs. I take them as long as I can get them. He is into the hair thing and working out more. The biggest thing I heard this summer was mom you no longer have to look down at me. You are looking across. Meaning he grew taller and he no longer shorter than me.
My son is turning 13 in Sept and going into 7th grade. I've just tried to keep the lines of communication open. If anything, to my surprise, I think he's been opening up more this calendar year since he was stressed about something and realized that he felt better after talking to his parents about it.
My oldest son will be turning 12 within the next 6 months as well. It is a roller coaster ride for sure and I really wanna get off of it. lol Unfortunately, we have to keep on going and learn on the fly.
I'm still mad that I left my boys' owners manual in the hospital after giving birth. I could really use that owners manual right about now. lol
What is with the sassy mouth?
