Conversations With A Teenager I Never Thought I Would Have

Conversation #1

Me:  Nick, did you know that high school kids are taking heroin now?
Teenage son:  Shooting-up or smoking it?
Me:  Neither.  Kids are taking it like pills that look like colorful gumballs!
Son:  Mom, I would never do drugs because you would catch me.
Me:  So you are saying that you would do drugs if you could get away with it?
Son (with a smirk):  I wouldn't mind trying some pot brownies.

Conversation #2

My son was listening to his music playlist on the computer when I walked in and heard Andy Sandberg (from Saturday Night Live) singing, "I want to put my penis inside of you".

Me:  Nick, this song is totally inappropriate.  Remove it from your playlist.
Son:  Mom, it's just Andy Sandberg.  He's hilarious.  I watched the "Dick In A Box" skit with you on Saturday Night Live.
Me:  I am okay with "Dick In A Box" but not okay with "I Want To Put My Penis In You".


Yes, I really did have those conversations with my son.  Believe me, my head was about to explode!  And I am embarrassed to say that "Dick In A Box" is pretty funny.  Check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIDlqI7fB4Y

Hi Lela. I had to wait until my giggles subsided in order to type my comment. Loved this post! Raised two sons, and had countless similar talks with them in their teenage years. Heck, we get into some pretty weird convos now that they're grown. They never stop surprising me!
My sister's birthday is today and she's single. I "should have" thought of the dick in the box! I'm sure they sell those some place. LMAO

Oh dear, so much to look forward to. I have a list of a few already and mine is not even 4.

WOW... I'm giggling...I can not wait to see what sort of things Lil Duck and I talk about.

At least you ARE having these conversations. I commend you for that. I'm thinking the 7 year old caught in the bathroom masterbating during summer school who said her girlfriend liked to watch her do that probably didn't have a parent who communicated so well with her.

That is soooo funny. The Dick in a box is great, but the conversation all together is too funny. Oh btw, love the new header to the blog.
