J to me: You do not understand what being a cool boy is for Halloween. Blood, weapons, violence.
J to me getting angrier: I am not thinking like a girl, like early childhood stuff like you mamá. You have to learn to live with a boy, who likes guns and stuff. Boys think violent.
J to M and to F and to anyone who will listen to how inept I am: She does not think like a boy
Me to M: Can I help you figure it (piano) out?
M: No. I do not want anyone to help me. Not even if Beethoven came over to ask me.
he added "the internet people are girls like you" - they do not know cool costumes
ReplyDeletehe wants to be a "violent boy" for halloween? maybe just help him come up with something more creative or at least concrete that clarifies that being a boy doesnt equal being violent? like maybe being something specific? a ninja? a soldier? things that can be female too?! i know what little m is going to be :) lili brought something perfect
ReplyDeleteno he does not want to be a "violent boy.' he wants to be anything that seems cool or involves violence, or allows him to have weapons as accessories.
ReplyDeletei think ninjas are cool :)
