About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.

Seriously
As a parent, you learn that you can only control so much of what your children do. They are individuals, after all, capable of making their own choices, right or wrong. I work hard to let my boys grow up with solid values and boundaries, doing my best to remind them that they don’t have to agree with me, or my views on the world.

What makes me sad is those parents that expect their children not to feel, or worse yet think they can control it. Can we really tell our children that they aren’t hurting, sad, happy or in love? Are they our feelings or theirs?
