Been there, done that

I fell pregnant when I was doing my matric, gave birth the following year, my son is now a teenager and I find it amusing that he thinks that I never went through what he is going through now as a teenager.
 
He comes with tricks that I did and tries to keep a straight face because he is lying, guess what? I always catch all his tricks because I used those same tricks before.
 
I make sure that i spend a lot of time with him, so that he doesnt find time to be a bad boy, he is my friend and I've made it easy for him to talk to me about anything, well its not easy but I insists that he should talk to me not his friends, because I know better and advice from his friend is not recommended.
 
I still allow him to be a child and be naughty,but when is time to get serious, I make sure that he is a good, disciplined child of God.
