A Day in the Life of a Modern Teen

By Jennifer Guidry

Those of you who have teenagers live quite a different life than those with little ones. One of our TMoM readers, Jennifer, has given us some insight into living with teens in the 21st century. She has a 16-year-old son and a 15-year-old daughter and claims to have mastered the skills of texting, blogging, and emailing just so she can communicate effectively with them both while she works a full-time job!

We all know how quickly times have changed and I am sure our teens cannot even fathom what our lives were like as teens without cell phones, computers, texting, or Facebook.
