Man this is such a hard topic, especially now as a parent to teenagers. Colleen said the now ubiquitous “kill yourself” in conversation not that long ago, not to me, but about a conversation with friends. I don’t restrict her speech anymore but that was a hard no. I don’t care if it’s the norm it’s just not acceptable.
Oh, Layla got a sitdown and I played the long game for her if what she said ever came true. Suspensions, expulsions, job loss, lawsuits, criminal charges, dreams being shattered... It shook her world.
