Age Gap

Asher & Chancery were talking about being teenagers, & adults, & where you make the different distinctions...

C: "I'm almost a teenager."

A: "No, you have to be 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, or 19 to be a teenager."

C: "Yeah, & when you are 20 you become a parent."

Me: "You can become a parent at any age.  You become a parent when you have a kid, not when you turn a certain age."

A: "When you are 20 you are a young lady, or a young man, & when you are 30, you are just a lady, or man."

Me: "Do you think I am a young lady, or a lady?"

A: "You are a parent!"

C: "Yeah, you're a mum!"

I guess being a parent sweeps you out of the other categories!
