Fuck it, I ain't your friend!

Why do parents try so hard to be cool with their kids? I'm a parent of a teenager and I don't give a fuck if he thinks I'm cool. I am here to prepare him for a world that doesn't give a shit if he lives or dies. I don't care what his friends think of me either, I ain't on no let me be your friend bullshit. I will teach him right and wrong and in the end he will have to choose what road he wants to take, but I won't sit back and let him fuck up right under my nose. I'm a parent not a friend. After he leaves my house we have the rest of our lives to be friends, but for the time being I put my foot straight up his ass when he needs it, which is more than I would like. All in all he is a crazy funny lovable young man. I will not set him up for life challenges by letting him mistake my love for friendship. You ain't drinking in my house you ain't fucking in my house you ain't smoking in my house . I know this won't stop him from doing these things but I'm not going to give him a free pass to be a fuck up so I can wear the cool mom title. Fuck that! I'm Mama and that's the only title I need to hold!
