As of today, I am officially the father of three teenagers. My daughter hung up on me three times as I tried to sing her "Happy Birthday" over the phone. I don't think I'm that bad of a singer. My daughters are now 13 and 15 and my older son is 17. And you know what? Life is really good. One of those myths of life is that teenagers are terrible. To be sure, they do have their challenging moments and the reality is that mistakes in judgment (of which they often have very little) during the teenage years can have much greater costs than do the spills and scrapes of younger children. But I genuinely like teenagers, which is a good thing considering my job as a school counselor / director of spiritual life in a Pre-K through 12th grade school. I feel lucky to be able to interact with teenagers on a daily basis, as they are really funny and naïve and quirky and challenging and unmotivated and caring and generous and angry and unique and brilliant.
