'That' Unimportantly Important Subject.

 There are three subjects our parents usually care about.

You know it, I know it, they know it.


So why do they get mad if you don't do well in ALL subjects.


They don't ask about or want to hear about THOSE subjects but if you do badly in them its Armageddon.


Remember all those conversations like..

"Mom/Dad, I got a 95% in (insert one of THOSE subjects)"


and they say "What will you do with (insert subject) in life?"


But if you don't do well in it...









Well, we all know where the story goes from there.

The Copy Machine

  A big thank you to the lady who told me this story. She gave me a new view on babies thanks to an intriguing conversation. My little brother reached the stage that he copied everything that everyone said. As a result we were really, really, really careful. We once said poop in his presence and that comprised the majority of his vocabulary for one week! Back to the story. My mom always carried my brother with her to greet my dad whenever he came home from work. She always said "Welcome home honey" One day, as my dad came home, my brother broke free from my sister and I and ran up to our dad yelling "Honey! Honey! Honey!" at the top of his lungs. We were shocked. My mom was worried. My dad look faintly disturbed. How were we going to wean him off this?

The Sleepover Story

  'Mom, dad, can I sleepover at my friend's house next week?' 'Sleep-what? You can be with them all day, why do you need to sleep in their house? Why can't they come here?...' A lot more questions follow that. From the experience of teens, more often than not, parents believe that you should play out all day and come back to your house to sleep. It's not a bad philosophy.  You don't really lose out of not sleeping over at your friend's house. A huge pro is, when you are older, hopefully, you'll sleep in your own house most of the time, which is a great way to remain safe.
