It took me some time to really figure out who I was (think I'm still discovering on many levels) so I get what you're saying about giving them time. Parental peer pressure...I feel a post coming on. ;-)Wendy Paine Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136235074351188350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91619058872894494.post-26401023880714788612013-07-10T06:26:36.749-07:002013-07-10T06:26:36.749-07:00It matched my mind--my room. ;-)

We have to be willing to give our kiddos freedom to breathe -- to let them discover who they are. And to do they, we have to turn our backs on parental peer pressure and choose to love our kiddos and celebrate them, no matter what anyone else is going to think, say, or do.Beth K.

Of course, I see this more in the second one, my son, since the eldest is a 'color inside the lines' kind of girl.

She is definitely her own person. :) Jennifer Shirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16970585847385511795noreply@blogger.com
