Friends

We want to fix everything for our kids, but there's a lot of things we simply cannot.
Much of that is because we are their parents.
Not that we ever felt that way.
Someone unrelated, or  a sibling can express the same thought better.
It's the old saw about how dumb the parents of an 18 year old are.
Peers.  Now they can say exactly the same thing we say and really get through.
Take a look at what my friend, fellow mom Anne Higley has to say about the power of an invitation made by one of her son's friends.
Thank you, Anne, for sharing your gift with words.
