Thanks for sharing that, Julie. I can tell there is merit for adults using this kind of ID, too... don't you think? I love that one of the features of the ID tag I wrote about is that you can post the medical details and insurance info online so that it can always be updated accurately... even can be used for special info when one is traveling. Nice internet application. :>

Fawnda Hathaway Boy, I sure hope so. I think the questionable part is how you handle that relationship. I feel completely comfortable with wanting to get a vibe on my son's freinds and / or love interest - but not "close up" , like 20 questioning them or anything. There's so many different ways to have a relationship.

Donna Iacopucci

Donna Iacopucci I find it most challenging to let my 13 year old really discover himself without having me suffocating him and parenting him the same as when he was 9 or 10 years old. Asking questions without sounding like I am interrogating him and keeping communication lines open are sometimes a challenge.

No question about it, Donna. Some days it's an art form to keep the communication lines open and get the questions out without a teen running away. You'll get it!
