**Where are the raising teen blogs!?**

I have been following Heather Armstrong's blog, Dooce.com, mostly because I was fascinated by what happened to her with her job. She writes with raw honestly about life with an infant. The NY Times style section, last weekend featured her blog and a picture of baby Leta, along with a discussion about the explosion of blogs by moms with babies, chronicling for the world the process of raising an infant.

So...

Where are the blogs about dealing with teens? Where are the blogs by parents:
  • adjusting to empty nest syndrome,
  • dealing with kids making unpredictable choices that will cascade through their lives,
  • adjusting to complete lack of communication that apparently is common with teen boys?
  • [insert topic of your choice here]

These blogs are badly needed. Heather and others like her need to refer to them in anticipation of how their lives will be in 12 years.
