Linda Townsend, a 76-year-old mother from Australia's Gold Coast, reflects affectionately on her parenting years, particularly her teenage years with her children, which she cherished. She fondly recalls spontaneous moments of fun, like skinny dipping in a bioluminescent lake. Despite enjoying their friendship, she also recognized her role in providing guidance and discipline through their school years and emotional challenges. Now a grandmother of seven, she maintains a strong bond with her children, expressing that the love and connection between mother and child is everlasting.
Although my kids were my best friends, I also knew they needed guidance and discipline. As a parent, you're there to teach them boundaries and manners.
I used to have a lot of spontaneous fun with my kids. Sometimes, I'd take my three girls to the local lake, and we'd skinny dip.
