You know your children are becoming teenagers when they stop asking where they came from—and start refusing to tell you where they’re going.
Teenagers are children who have learned two important things:
How to roll their eyes…
And how to hire themselves as their own attorneys.
Every conversation becomes a trial.
“Where are you going?”
“Out.”
“With whom?”
“People.”
“When will you be home?”
“Later.”
Your Honor, I’d like permission to treat the witness as hostile.
I wrote a book called Thou Shalt Not Whine: The Eleventh Commandment.
Chapter One was about children.
Chapter Two is about teenagers—because apparently ordinary childhood whining wasn’t challenging enough.
Enjoy, enjoy!
