What do young people say about you?

Huh. I don't know. The kids tell me their friends think I'm nice which they don't understand at all.

I always ask the kids about the latest school gossip. Yesterday, I got names of the 7^th graders that are smoking pot and I know which girls are considered sluts and who the horniest boys are.

Unfortunately, I found out that one of the kids who is a wannabe pothead is the son of a friend. Not a close, close friend but still a friend. I kind of want to say something to her but I would have to know for certain that it wouldn't get out that my kids had said something. If some kid goes to school and call one of mine a narc, they'll clam up tighter than Dick's uptight ass.

Well a diplomatic way to tell her if you really feel that strongly that she should know, would be to mail her a letter anomalously. If she has any concerns, she'll look into it, if not, she won't, if it's hers, that's a whole another story.


(PS: Young kids treat me like most adults, they don't say anything around me they don't want me to hear)
