Keeping it real

 17. My perfect day would probably entail spending my day down in Arkansas with my family and spend the whole day riding and skating. I love spending the day in Arkansas, because it’s so much more fun than down here and has so much more to do.

11. As a kid we spent allot of time outside. And more than half of that time we spent playing hide and seek. So I’m pretty okay at playing hide and seek. We used leave the screen porch of one of our friends house unlocked so that we could hide in there and lock the door again so that nobody else could get in and pretty much just chill in there. Or we would climb up this tree in his backyard and just go as high as we could because only a few of us were able to climb the tree because of the branch that started it. That branch was fairly high up there so only a select few could reach.

7. I honestly believe it depends on the person. Some people can fall in love at the drop of a hat, and others are a little wearier of the word “love”. But I mean if you think that there is a future with that person, by all means be with them and try to make everything work. But when you see a future, you need to kind of watch how you two work. Like how you click and how you but heads, things like that I feel like are really fairly important. I mean there are people who just click and everything is perfect from the beginning and that’s great. But there are also others who take time to fall for someone and things aren’t always fine and dandy from the beginning on. So really it depends on who you are.

2. Parents of teenagers definitely are brave souls. Teens are not in any way shape or form easy to deal with and put up with. They argue just to argue, they poke at things just to get under their skin, and teens are jerks at times. But parents have to allow their teens to have freedoms. Curfew is a huge deal to a teen. Who wants to go home at like 7:00 at any age? There is no fun in that no matter what age a person is at. But parents like to have their teens home at a reasonable time because they’re worried about them doing bad things or something along those lines, most of the time. But parents really need to give their teens a reasonable curfew, that’s a big one. They also need to stop trying to baby their teens. They did a good job already, they made it to 13+ because of their parent’s encouragement and teachings but from then on. Parents need to give their teens the ability to sink or swim on their own. Everybody needs encouragement, but a helicopter parent is much different than encouragement. And freedoms, this is huge. If a kid isn’t doing well in school, I understand grounding them or taking privileges away, but when they’re doing well at life. They need to have their freedoms and chances to still be a kid
