Well... at least he wants to obey the law, right?
Last night, while watching the drunken revelry that is New Years in Times Square, I had this conversation with T2:
T2:"I can't wait until I turn 21."
Me:"uh... why?"
T2:" Then I can get drunk with my friends on New Years."
So, I should be happy that he wants to be a proper, law-abiding citizen and wait until it's legal to partake of adult beverages before he goes and gets smashed with his friends. Right?
OK... so I have 10 years to explain to my children that a slight buzz is actually more fun than an acloholic stupor. How in the world am I supposed to do that???
