Last night I took my 14 year old son to get a new card for his cell phone and this was our conversation.
Austin: "My teacher is a not so nice person Mom."
Me: "Why?"
Austin: "Every time I ask her a question she gets all irritated with me."
Me: "Do you wait to be called on or just shout out at her?"
Austin: "I always wait and my friends think she just doesn't like boys. Maybe she is monsterating, you know women get mean when they are monsterating Mom."
Me: "Do you mean menstruating Austin?"
Austin: "Yeah, whatever it is. I believe it too. Once a month you women get all mean and crabby."
Me: "Seriously son. It could be that you just irritate us."
Austin: "Nope, that's not it. My other teacher said she can't even go by her Mom right now because her Mom is going through that thing when old women can't get pregnant anymore. It's like menstrupate, monopate, molo...... what's that called Mom?"
Me: "Menopause."
Austin: "Yep, that's it. When are you going to do that Mom because I don't want to be around you?"
Me: "Thanks Austin. I appreciate that. You know that women were created to have babies and all of this stuff comes from that. We are the stronger species Austin, you know that right?"
Austin: (laughs) "Yeah, Moms are always right."
I guess at least I have taught him well.
I about died and peed in my pants during that conversation.
