Jeff,
And to piggyback on that, don’t waste all your energy trying to convince those who don’t like you that they should. That’s a lesson I have been trying to teach my newly-turned teenager, and I think he is getting it! 🙂 Amazing how much adults can go through life and never get that.

Bob, it is amazing. Sadly, I know first hand. But I’ve come through to the other side and can look back a valuable lesson. Praying that you have the courage to stay with this and that your son does too. The only thing tougher than being a new teenager is being their parent. (at least that’s what I’ve observed – I can let you know for sure in about 2 more years)
Jeff,
Trust me – every day is becoming a learning experience with my teenager, and that’s on my side of the court. I am sure his is pretty full of his own learning experiences as well! 🙂

The paradox of being a parent. Exciting and scary.
