Up in the sky, its a bird, its a plane...
No! Its your friendly neighborhood teenager! Modern day super heroes don't wear tights and a cape, and they don't have a mask.
They can't fly, and they don't have super strength.
They just show up in tee shirts, and over sized baggy jeans, to save the day.
I am a middle aged guy, and at this point in my life you would think that I would be self sufficient; but nothing could be further from the truth.
When the TV is stuck on Video2, and it appears that I will be watching a plain blue screen forever, I call my step son to figure out the remote.
When I install a disc not compatible with my Windows XP, and totally mess up my computer, I send up the bat signal for my step son's friend to bail my ass out.
The more and more life changes, the more I realize that teenagers are indispensable.
I am not a moron, (I don't think so anyway), but the modern world left me behind not long after the invention of "Pong" in the early 80's.
Back in 1990 I needed my five year old son to teach me how to play "Mario Brothers"! I am not what you would call technologically inclined.
Now, the only kid I have left is my step son, if he gets married and moves away, what will I do? I don't believe I can buy a teenager over the internet, and if I lure them over with candy, people will think that I am a pedophile.
I think I'm going to have to connive a way to keep my step son from moving out...
at least until I get some grand kids.
