I usually ride the bus in the mornings to go to work. This morning I happened to be amongst a group of teenagers in the back of the bus. There's many schools around where we live so it's not surprising that I'm surrounded by teenagers. I'm always seeing how teens are these days and what they are interested in because I know someday I will have to deal with a teenage you. A few stops after I got on a teenage girl got on the bus. I guess she knew some of the boys in the bus so she started talking to one of them. She started saying, 'I wanted to kill my parents last night...' I guess she had fought with her parents so she was venting to one of the boys. She was going on how annoying they were, etc. etc. When I heard that my heart just broke. I started thinking, 'Will Aidan think of us that way when he is a teenager? Will he think we're annoying?' I don't remember hating my parents while I was a teenager, but then that was a long time ago. Then what shocked me even more was when all the teenagers got off the bus, almost 90% of them took out cigarettes in their bags and started smoking. Sigh.
For now, I'll worry about you being super needy and wanting to always be held by me. I'm fine with that.
