When I was young I swore I would never have children. Now that I am with my husband I cannot WAIT to have children together. Everyone says it's weird to hear me talk about having kids after all my talk of no kids lol.

Teenagers are ignorant and unrespectful because of parents. You need to teach them from day ONE how to behave appropriately. To say please and thank you etc. Also most parents don't set an example for their kids. If you are telling your kids to say please and thank you and hold doors or whatever you better be doing it yourself. Monkey see monkey do.

I like the name tegan someone mentioned. Thats really nice for a boy.

Someone also mentioned Ryan for a girl. LOVE IT. if I have a girl (I want all boys lol)
I want to name her Ryan.

We already have a girl, Miriam Evelyn (Mimi for short), but if we have another we are tossed up between Bridget or Abigail. Abigail is fairly common at the moment so we probably won't go with that.

For a boy, Ian Oliver is #1 on our list. Hubby's name is John Oliver and Ian is Russian for John I've been told so Hubby would have his Jr. without the Jr.

I disagree. Friends have a lot to do with it. My brother and I grew up with the same parents in the same house, but we are polar opposites. He did/does drugs, drinks, parties, gets arrested, etc. Two years ago he went to a party and got gang beaten and now he's got a brain injury.

Me, I do none of that stuff. My parents did all they could for my brother (and still do now for his injury), but friends and environment have so much to do with it. Parents can only do so much without sheltering their child.

first, I am a moron lol I can't believe I said unrespectful. I know it's disrespectful.

I am sorry about your brother. While I do agree that friends influence teens A LOT there still has to be a moral center built and supported by the parents. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. Really though when drugs come into play it really doesn't matter about what they were taught they aren't in any right state of mind to think about anything other than the drugs. Outside of drugs I think parents can do A LOT to keep their kids on the right path.
