Your favorite age

[Cowgirl]

What is/was your favorite age/stage with your kids and why?

 

[mAlice]

terrible toddlers.

 

[rack'm]

Teenage years......old enough to do stuff with and to tell to get the hell out of dodge to give you some privacy.

 

[mainman]

It just keeps getting better and better....

 

[MLGTS08]

3-4 years there is so much to teach them and they are so eager to learn... plus they are so cute.

 

[Warrant Guru]

I think 6 months to 1 year is the best. No longer just blobs and they haven't learned to say the word "NO!!" yet.

 

[Pete]

30's.

 

[punjabigyrl]

I have enjoyed all the stages of my children and I think since they are so driven to be the best of the best.....they just amaze me. Looking forward for them to be teenagers and the adulthood and see what happens.

 

[vraiblonde]

I like(d) it all. They were sweet as babies, fun as toddlers, interesting as children, fascinating as teens and now that they're grown I'm reaping my reward. I like parenting, but I'm not sorry the hands-on stuff is over - it's a lot of work.

 

[Toxick]

I picked 3-4 years, because they're past the terrible 2's, they're out of diapers... but they're still so darn cute!


Of course, I'm liking that some are school-age now, and don't need to be monitored every waking second.


Not looking forward to the teen years.

 

[Nickel]

It just keeps getting better and better....

Not looking forward to the teen years.

It's like childbirth: agonizing when you're going through it, then after it's done you go, "Well, that wasn't so bad..."

 

[Dye Tied]

2-4 years old, then 30's. Unlike Pete, I'm talking about kids, not dates.

 

[sweetpea15]

i totally agree with you.

lets try this again: I totally agree with you.

 

[RoseRed]

I can't decide. I loved the baby and toddler years, but I love her at 8 when she can do for herself. If she is anything like me, I dread the teen years.

 

[CMC122]

It just keeps getting better and better....

 

[onebdzee]

Won't fully experience it for another 8 or so years...but, when I am waving from my new boat, as it leaves the dock, to all my mutts(and possibly a few guys in white jackets) waving back....I will enjoy their age

And so you should. But after the teen years are over, they tend to appreciate you more and understand why you acted the way you acted when they were young. And you can always give them the parents curse, "I hope when you have children that they act just the way you did."

Funny thing. My mother never ever said that to me. It happened anyway.
