i have a hard conversation tonight. i have to tell a kid he is a liar. everyone else knows it but the kid doesn't know that others have caught on. this is made all the more serious because the kid will soon be legal an adult and he doesn't Evin know about the doors of opportunity that get slammed in his face everyday. he thinks they have always been closed. he is wrong. they are wide open for many other teens his age, but closed for him. part two of this conversation will be me calling him on twisting my words to his parents. example
Chris: (not his name) I'm mad at my parents
Peter: why
Chris: cuz they suck and i hate them. I am going to kill them
Peter: that is a major threat, you sure you mean that?
Chris: I'm not going to kill them i just hate them
Peter: don't say things like that, you are almost 18 and people should be taking you seriously.
they wont if you keep saying stuff they know is a lie.
Chris to his parents: you have to take me seriously, Peter said you do cuz i am almost 18!


because he is almost an adult (body only) he wants to be treated as an adult.
OK, bro here we go.
this one is going to hurt

(this one is going to suck)
