We now interrupt our regularly scheduled program to bring you the first installment of Teen Talk. Be assured, everything you are about to hear is real and unedited. Please, do not try this at home.
One day at the Walgreens checkout…
Mom: “Teen, could you please carry the bag?”
Teen: (picks up bag) “Why do I have to carry the bag?”
Mom: “Because, you are a guy, and guys carry things for girls.”
Teen: “Oh.”
Mom: “Except a girl’s purse. You don’t have to carry a girl’s purse.”
Teen: “Right, there is no need for that kind of shame until you’re married!”
The end
