From time to time I play Family Feud. Occasionally, Jonathan will join me and we'll take turns answering the questions.
The question came up: "Where would you go on your first date?"
I answered, "Movie". 57% of those polled also said "Movie".
"Good answer, Mom!" he said with a high 5.
Jonathan's turn.
"I'd take her to my bedroom."
"WHAT??? NO! Son!! What in the world??? You NEVER EVER take a girl to your bedroom, Jonathan!! Why would you take a girl to your bedroom??? (Knowing my son is still very innocent in anything to do with the birds and bees, I was really quite curious. Had I misjudged his naivety ?)
"Why not, Mom?? That's where the video games are!"
"Ohhhhhh, of course! The video games!!
"But don't worry Mom, I'd let her win sometimes. Then she'd keep playing with me."
Wise young man...
