i really wasnt sure where to post this, it's not really related to anything medically, but thought others of teenagers may find it a little humorous as i did when i came across it:
the kiss of death
i wipe my brow as i prepare to enter into battle. my heart pounds as i take my first step toward my destination. i'm not sure if i can, not sure if i have the guts to stand up to the enemy. i say a silent prayer for the lord's protection for i know not what the outcome may be. am i strong enough? do i have enough courage? i take a few more steps hesitantly toward my dreaded mission. heart pounding so hard i can barely breathe. i think of all that i'm proud of in my life, then recall things that i'd like to have done differently, but theres no taking back the past. i just hope if i do not return that i'm remembered lovingly by all. i can't get any closer.....i'm there! i wipe my brow one last time........i can't breathe.........this is it!.......................
i slowly turn the doorknob to my teenage daughters bedroom door..........and ask if i can have a turn on the phone.

i know, kind of corny, but anyone who has a teenage girl that loves her phone as much my daugher will find the humor in it!

I can soooo relate to this as the mum of a 13 yo girl
Even worse asking them to 'actually do something', i mean why should she do dishes/put washing out/go to school/wake up/go to sleep?:chuckle

My daughter is only 10, not really into the phone thing yet. But, I found this quite comical.
Smiles and hugs.

This was so funny! It doesn't apply to just the teen girls, it is the boys as well. When my son was a teen, it was a constant battle to use the phone, the computer, the TV, or getting him to turn down the stereo. I have never had a teen girl, but the boys are guilty of the same. LOL....
