Not a phrase I expected to hear from my 9 yo...
To be fair, he'll be 10 in a few days, but still... He told me there was something he really wanted to do, could he ask someone out on a date?
Apparently one of the other boys has asked a girl "out." and I'm sensing my son is fearing falling behind...i.e. ending up with whatever girl is left rather than one he wants to go out with...I know it's sad, but I'm hoping the parents of the girl this boy asked out says, "no, she can't go." That way this whole thing can settle down for a couple years. I could just strangle this boys mom, she's a "busy-body" who I swear is trying to push kids into growing up sooner. She organized and elementary school dance! and now she's apparently encouraged her son to ask a girl out.
BTW, his idea of a date, would be going to a movie...
I just want to hit the snooze botton on this one for a couple of years.
