what it seems i don't know

so lately I have been able to hang out with my friends more often, it has seemed. outside of school, I might point out. I emphasize that mostly because the people that I see at school are not the same people are not the people that I see elsewhere. a lot of people are good at playing the innocent game at school, and it makes me wonder how much I really don't know.

I suppose the scariest part for me is, what about when I have kids? what will they be doing that I won't know about? perhaps that is one thing that you learn to accept as a parent. but I hope and pray that my children and I are so close that we don't have any secrets. HA. that is probably a long shot. but how much privacy is one entitled to, especially as a child?

it comes down to the fact that things are so hard to outline; there's no definite answer.
I guess for now I'm just left to wonder.

BLOG

i worry about these things too. i worry that i'll worry too much...which is funny...and i worry that my kids will think i'm a nagger. so i'm like...do i sacrifice secure feelings for letting them develop on their own? it's not even having freedom, really, it's just developing their own opinions, you know?

maybe i should worry when i ACTUALLY have kids...

anyway, i'm so glad you have a blog.

i'm pretty sure parenting is going to be really really really hard. where is that line between independence and discipline?
and yea. a lot of people at our school are not who you think they are. a lot of people at our school don't know who they are. so can i blame them?
