Teen Revelations with Kids Say What?

D., our eldest son, 14 y/o, started high school a few weeks ago. He is enjoying school including not having to wear a uniform, (there is a dress code, no gangster or hoochie mamawear, exposed midriffs, spaghetti straps, inappropriate tshirts, the list is quite detailed), but it is much more liberal than his junior high uniform. He is very happy to be wearing his Beatles, Metallica, and National Sarcasm Society (Like we need your support) Tshirts to school.

D.told me after the first week of school that despite partially expecting the Seniors at the school to "stab me in the heart, they ignored me." He was relieved with this outcome.

He is taking Spanish and is also enjoying the class very much. He practices the Spanish alphabet with our dog, Charley. Charley is a very attentive student learning to roll his Rs.

D.also determined that my new car "wasn't new any longer after a month". Just in time for my first car payment.

Thanks for sharing in my reflections through a teen boy prism. For more Kids Say What?, please visit Cammie at The House of No Sleep.

Actually, it's the adults who say "What?", kids say "Huh?".
