    Dear IL'ites,

    Forum for June 2009 is :

    Schoolgoers & Teens
    There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: One is roots, the other is wings

    The Quote simply summarizes the best way a parent need to handle a teenager child.
    Teenagers are sensitive lot of children and demands a lot of attention, patience and understanding in handling them. Once you mastered and set the wavelength with your teen age child then they are like your best friend at home. We, parents become their soul mate lending ears to their rantings.
    With such a dynamic forum at hand is there a dearth of topics to be discussed. Well no, go ahead and make the forum lively with the most useful discussions about school goers and teen agers.

    Ladies ensure that the thread is lively calling for active participation from other ILites.

    Congratulations...Shanvy!

    That was a very thoughtful post on behalf of the kids asking the Parents to give it a thought. While all parents want their kids to shine, it is also important that we don't make it a burden on them. Let them come out shining high in their true colors as per their own dreams.

    I liked especially the way you wrote getting so many parents to join you in the discussions thinking along with you. That's what made your discussion successfully popular I guess!!
