It is a daily habit to check my daughter's Myspace page for content... just to make sure she isn't abusing the privilege. The other morning, while checking it, I noticed that she was excited for this coming Thursday. I wracked my brains and couldn't remember anything exceptional about Thursday. So I went in and asked her.
'Hey, what's on Thursday?'
'Huh?' She replied... She wasn't entirely awake.
'Your Myspace says you're excited about Thursday.'
'Oh, remember? I might go to the mall with Shannon.'
'That's right, okay. Just checking.'
As I walked back into the living room, she called out, 'Why did you want to know?'
I took this opportunity and ran with it...
'Just wanted to make sure you weren't planning on having sex that day.'
'GOD MOM, SERIOUSLY??!!'
Let me just say this- maybe it sounds weird, nosy, obnoxious or all of the above that I say these things. But I happen to know that two of her friends have already given boys oral sex... so I feel my paranoia and constant questions are justified. Yeah, that's right- 13 year olds giving blow jobs in bathrooms and in the back of school busses... horrifying.
