Wednesday, May 1, 2019 by Kimberly Miller

For most parents, the thought of their children becoming teenagers is something that seems terrifying - not only does it symbolize for them that their child is growing up, will soon want to be doing their own thing, won’t want to have their parents around, but it feels like during this time in their life they’re going to be off doing all kinds of things that they’re not supposed to be doing like experimenting with alcohol or even drugs.

How to Return to Being a Working Mom

The love that exists between a child and their mom and dad is everlasting. No matter what happens, they will always be there to offer advice and support.
