Are There Any Parenting Blogs Focusing on Teens?

I miss those years...


I am a mom of a teen boy and soon be teen girl (who, I might say is already going through the emotions of a teen so I just can't wait to see what comes in 2 years, lol.)

If you know me I am online A LOT.  I have a few blogs, I am on the popular social networks, I try to earn a living online and I am just hear reading to learn.

The one thing I have not come across is mom blogs that focus on the teen years.  

There are expectant mom blogs, newborn mom blogs, and child mom blogs.  But I just can't seem to find blogs about mom (and dads) writing about their life with their teen.

WHY?

First, I assume their teens would never talk to them again.  But, really, is that so bad or different than what is already going on? (lol)

And, well, are the parents of teens done with parent talk?  Do they think they got this whole raising a child thing down?

Because I don't.

I would love to meet some parent bloggers who talk about having teens.

I have found one place I can explore and seems to be growing: Mom Bloggers Club "Moms with Teens". There is some talk going on there but I would really like to read some blogs.

Any ideas? 
Do you write about your life with a teen?

  1. It's very true. It seems that either parents burn out by the time their kids are older or the need for privacy is stronger. My daughter is 11 and I don't know what I'll do as she gets older. I already know that it's tough sometimes but I don't necessarily want to 'rag' on her online, know what I mean? I think it's also a learning process and dynamics of each family at that stage are too unique to capture in a post or two. Either way, I'd love it if you decided to spearhead your thoughts and experiences on tweens/teens!
