Teen Angst is a Killer

Honey, my darling Baby Girl...why did you just shoot my favorite shirt in the heart?

I appreciate the fact that you're upset because I took your cellphone away for a week.

I understand your angst, your cellphone is your lifeline to the outside world.

Oh, my dear Honey Child! I appreciate every last drop of your sunshine that shines on Me!

But, I would have appreciated it more...if you would have waited till I took it off Darlin'!

It's the one that you gave me for my birthday that weekend on the lake with Mom!
