Not really sure ,but it seems like the teenage brain is wired up like spaghetti nowadays from media overload,
Just had an old friend of mine and my family drop me around a bunch of pictures she found in a clean out ,man it blew my mind ,the good old days .............no handy phones or other technological bullshit to mindfuck you ,was bliss indeed .
Her own lad is in the typical teen rebel phase right now ,and seems to think he has some kind of all seeing eye ,or superpowers through wiring his brain into peoples minds via technology ,thats not going to end well .Got himself body slammed on to the hood by the cops too for mouthing off and that looks like its going before a man with a wig ,dually trumped up to an assault charge against him now ,and it was 'home base' the emergency call came from in from in the first place so maximum clusterfuck effect.
The kids sporting abillity and innate talent is jaw droping ,he's like Usain Bolt on speed, but thats all gone to pot and beer and fighting with his mates now. I have to help out ,but what do you do, give him a slap around the head and a kick up the hole ,if he lost the plot with me ,Id have a tough job putting him to reason without getting seriously damaged myself . No amount of military style beasting is gonna make things any better in any case ,so its time for an old fashioned man to man chat I think.
comments, sugestions, ideas all welcome .
