[quote=Anonymous]Sorry if this sounds crass, but my son is 16, and one thing that truly irks my soul is the way he talks—especially compared to how my nephew talks. My nephew talks about new games, pretty girls, and typical teenage stuff. My son, on the other hand, talks about local politics, condos vs. fee simple, the need for vouchers in MCPS as it declines, the imbalance of demographics, how the middle class is shrinking so fast, and what can be done about it. It’s just so annoying—like, go outside, talk to a girl! And the worst part? He’s conventionally attractive, so girls do want to talk to him. But he says things like, “They dress too much like streetwalkers.” Like—what?? How do I fix this? I always have to ask him, “Are you 50?” just to get him to shut up.[/quote]
