In court recently, a teenage boy sat quietly while his probation officer, people from CPS and other social services spoke to the judge about him. The lad was having a hard time in school, subjects not holding his interest, no clue what he wants to do with his life, a few behavioral problems.
Eventually, the judge got around to asking the young man about his hopes and plans, his goals and dreams.
"What in school are you most interested in, Brian?"
Pause, wry smile. "Honestly. Girls."
Love the honesty, I hope it bodes well for him.
(Brian is not his real name, of course. His real name is Mike.)
