Terrible Teens

I am beside myself with the bad behavior of a teenager. Life is so cruel. Facebook is a good way to see what the kids are thinking, but then again ignorance is a good thing. Too much information can color a relationship. But, then I have to remember teens can't help but being a teen.
I myself was a "good" kid in High School, but I was miserable. Some teens lash out and teens like I was hold it all in. It is a very frightening time for the kids and the parents. I am a nervous wreck. My parents had it so easy with me, but then I had three siblings who made thier life hell to make up for it. If I am lucky my other teen will continue to behave well.
I heard someone say, that teens are designed to hate their parents and therefore when they finally fly the coop its a relief and a good day for all concerned.

And I tell myself it could be much worse.....

Crying Wolf

If I hear one more person claiming that wolves have decimated (one came up with a ridiculous figure of 90 %) the deer population, I am going to ........become a vegatarian.

Just because a local hunter can't find anything to shoot at does not mean all the deer are dead. The Wolves forced them to move around. The numbers of Elk taken by mighty human hunters this year was actually a bit higher, but of course those crying wolf call the "government" stats a lie.

The wolf has always been a favorite scapegoat.

I myself, am personally cheering on the wolves. neener neener
