Good going sara! I think all teens need someone like you in their lives.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Sounds like an awesome small human!
And really, maybe they like having an adult who isn't an authority figure. Who is a ...role model, without authority? Heeeheehee!
So true. I think it's why I am a good aunt. Even when I have some authority*, I am not an authority figure.

I never thought I'd relate to teens. And honestly, I see mobs of them and even overhearing them, I want to scream. But this is my teen and her friends. I adjust, I am changed.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Sara, I'm fb friends with a few of the teen fencers, and it's very much the same kind of vibe. It's a little weird being the only adult in the room sometimes, but role model without authority isn't a bad thing to be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
At krav I got to be the adult that told the teens how the world worked. So when M went off to university, she got random vibrators and sex books in the mail from me, and her mother was very happy about it.

I'm SO GLAD there was no fb when I was a teen. It's all in my journals, and NO ONE got to read those. OMG, the drama! The hormones!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
