When my 15 year old son was heading out to the movies with his friends, I peppered him with questions:
“Do you have enough money?”
“Do you know where to meet me afterward?”
“You know not to talk to strangers, right? If you have a problem, look for a mom. Moms always help.”
“Did you pee? Maybe you should pee before you go?”
He looked at me and rolled his eyes, his patience for my mom questions wearing thin.
“Mah, I’m not a toddler anymore, remember?”
Oh. Right. Sigh.
As my children have grown...
