Worst CIA representative ever
Johnnie is terrible at his job. Johnnie falls in love. A mission is treated like a road trip. I'd rate it lower but I loved Sander. He was a bright spot in the movie. He came across as the most genuine character
Bunking with a buddy, but not in the queer way
I feel it’s about time I address the lost art of the sleepover. And I’m not talking about the collegiate ‘Let me put the tip in’ sleepover, but the good old-fashioned sleepover (Sidebar 1: Girls called sleepovers “slumber parties,” which, from what I comprehend, involved more chatter and toenail painting, presumably to distinguish between the proliferation of penises or hoohahs in a given living room). To be equitable, I always thought “slumber party” sounded more festive. And yes, I did match a white belt with my all colorless Bo Jacksons today.
Between 1990-1997, sleepovers had a general monopoly over the extracurricular activity circuit where I was growing up. Getting dropped off at the movies didn’t really start till seventh grade (where I come from, public transportation was only respectable to and from the beach in the summers of 1997 and 1998), so if you wanted to be with your buddies, you had to link up via the overnight. In the days of yore, sleepovers were fraught with anticipation (one of the many reasons Friday was the very best day of the week).
Lots of planning went into
Should I let my gay daughter own a sleepover with a same-sex friend?
Q: How do you recommend handling gay sleepovers when your 13-year-old daughter identifies as gay? She and her leading friend might be more than friends (she’s implied such when I’ve gently asked), so I don’t know how to handle them hanging out alone, either after college when no adults are home or during sleepovers when the adults are asleep.
A: When I first read this, I began to leave down an Gay rabbit hole and found information you could learn from (and I will still provide you with resources), but that isn’t what is needed here. This isn’t a matter of “gay” or “straight” sleepovers. This is about two main issues: your family principles and communication with your young teen.
I am going to guess that you didn’t grow up with many examples of how to parent gay youth; I know I certainly didn’t. I also don’t assume I would own gotten a scrutinize like this eight years ago, consent alone two. The landscape of considerations for parents when it comes to sleepovers and adoration is changing, but don’t overcomplicate it. Your young teen, gay or direct, still needs to know what principles are important in your
My 14-year-old gay son wants a sleepover
My 14-year-old son just came out to me. He has a slightly older boyfriend, and they’re going to the school dance on Saturday night. I am adjusting to a truth I had long suspected. I am worried, though, that my son will become hurt. We live in the South—North Carolina—but our town has a lgbtq+ community and an annual pride parade. When I asked him if the other students at university would be cool with him bringing a teen, he said, “Who cares?” Bullying is not a huge problem at his school.
We have had the sex talk several times, but I have always assumed a hetero approach. I think my son is too young for sleepovers with his lover, and I would really like him to hang around a couple more years before he gets seriously sexually active, though I expect petting and kissing are givens. Any advice?
> Still My Son
Treat your son to some of that equal treatment we gay people are always going on about, SMS, and treat him just like you’d treat your 14-year-old straight kid. No responsible parent would authorize his 14-year-old daughter—and that’s how you should consider of him for now (more on that in a moment)—to have sleepovers with her slightly older boyf
It's hard to describe the relentless intensity of having immature children if you haven't done it. It's wonderful, gorgeous, magical and all of that—it truly is—but it's a lot. Like, a lot. It's a bit like running an ultramarathon through the most lovely landscape you can imagine. There's no question that it's amazing, but it's really, really challenging. And sometimes there are storms or big hills or obstacles or twisted ankles or some other thing that makes it even more challenging for a while.
Unfortunately, a lot of moms feel like they're running that marathon alone. Some actually are. Some include partners who don't pull their weight. But even with an equal significant other , the early years tend to be mom-heavy, and it takes a toll. In fact, that toll is so great that it's not unusual for moms to fantasize about being hospitalized—not with anything stern, just something that requires a small stay—simply to receive a genuine break.
