Raising teens...

ALIEN-BOVINE-GENIUSES

That is what I call my teenagers!
Alien - They are no longer those cute kids full of wonder & amazement = Aliens came from outer space and took them away. I have no clue what they replaced them with but it is definitely an ALIEN lifeform!

Bovine - They can and often do eat everything in sight (and stashed away) and they do so without using the manners that were taught to them for more than 10 years!

Geniuses - THEY KNOW EVERYTHING and they are not afraid to let you know that they know everything. The irony here is they say they know it but they never do anything... must be an ALIEN thing. The one thing I know as an adult & a parent... there is a HUGE difference in knowing and actually doing.
