'I remember a dream I had, way back in 1999,' my fourteen year old told me in the tone of voice of a man who has seen many things in his life, and is now considering getting some blinkers.

My youngest son Pete (9) is showing al the signs of a future hypochondriac.'Mommy, if I pull my thumb, I feel something in my neck!' or 'When I breath my ear feels 'funny'. And then he looks up at me. His eyes filled with concern, but also with belief that I know the solution to...
When your children take the next step to adulthood, as a mom you have to take a step forwards too. But that's often easier said than done. When my oldest son was sixteen I started a new school. Which meant he had to ride his bike for 40 minutes to the nearest train station, and...
