Scheduling: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. June 13th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
For those who don't know, I am very anal (cue giggling).   In other words, I am organized and get  slightly bothered when things aren't.  Although it isn't as bad as clinical Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, it's similar.  This means that I tend to organize myself, but I am also a

Solution: Book Reports

by Mrs. C. May 18th, 2012| Parenting Predicament
