Mother of 2 teens and married for 21 years to the same person – haha. Family is extremely important to me and I am close with both of my children. We all get along quite well. I am an open-minded parent, but I am not so passive that I forget who the child is. I am their parent, not their friend, so I am careful not to cross that line and allow them to walk all over me. There is a very fine line, and I feel that society lately has blurred that entirely. We go for walks, cook together, do homework, and try to enjoy each other's company.

Well, I have two teens and my significant other has ADHD to the max. To say I am a patient person would be an understatement. I grew up on a farm, so I do know the value of hard work. My European parents were not scared to teach me old school values, so I am all about cleaning! I can also iron too. I love spending time with children, yet I feel it is important to teach them good values and morals. The world does not owe them anything, so having respect for their elders and society is extremely important.
