I Wish Raising Teenagers Was Simpler

Son informs me today that he got a 180.00 speeding ticket driving home from college. Not a happy mom at all!! No wonder I got grays. I hope he plans on working hard this weekend, cuz I am not paying for it. 🚓🚔😡🤦

My son had his license for a month before he had his first wreck. Not his last of course. The scariest was when he was run over by a truck (not his fault) and the stupidest was when he fell off the hood where he was standing "car surfing" while his girlfriend drove, trying to win concert tickets from a radio station. He's 40 now so I haven't had any late night calls in a while.

@Sunnykel76 He has a daughter now and I never raised a girl, should be interesting to see how that goes.
