My parenting style:
Raising kids, especially teens, requires a sense of humor. You respond to your teens’ antics with intelligent wit and banter that lets them know you love ‘em, but they’ll have to get up a lot earlier in the morning to sneak something past you.
Welllll … I can agree with the wit part – I certainly know how to laugh at the worst moments…
But the quick part?
I’ll get back to you on that one.
Hello! My name is Karen and welcome! I'm a mom to two young men - Dude (19) and Jazz (17). I've been married to the same wonderful, patient, thoughtful and generous man (Kevin) for 22 years.
I work full time in a healthcare clinic - it's my "day" job. I work on school websites after hours. I squeeze in family time and blogging in between all of that.
I believe in Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Writing Well. (I also believe in our Constitution - Don't Tread on my Rights, Yo).
I can be snark-a-licious, but only when provoked or when confronted with ignorant, ill-informed knuckleheads.
I also have a lot to say about nothing.
Brace yourself.

If not, maybe I can help!
I specialize in school websites. If your child's school website needs some work, please contact me - I would love to develop a fun and useful website you, and your school, could be proud of!
(Talk to your school's Parent/Teacher organization about budgeting for a new school website. Isn't it time YOUR school developed a better, cheaper, and more efficient way to communicate with your students and parents?)

The underlying model developed by our team of psychologists reveals an underlying complexity far richer than just ‘strict’ or ‘relaxed’ classifications.
And what’s particularly interesting is that you can take the test for a spouse and see where potential conflicts might lie and get advice on how to deal w/them. You can also compare results to your friends’.
