In defence of my 2 bolshy teenagers, I have to say they are brilliant!!! (when they arent arguing between themselves)
I was in a wheelchair on and off from when they were very young, and sadly was also stuck with an alcoholic, violent and abusive husband) after 18 years enough was enough and despite fears of how we would cope I got an injunction for him to leave the property, the children were only 6 and 7 then, and had a Mum who never knew if she would be able to get out of bed from the Lupus.
However we coped!! And over the years have continued to cope, despite the ups and downs mentioned in the first post on this thread. My son has also coped with ADHD and Aspergers and is currently at college, I am extremely proud of them both, and love to do stuff for them, including lots of home cooked meals. So I shouldnt really have moaned about them bickering, I guess they are typical teenage siblings, other than that I couldn't ask for better children!!
