Adult
Luke: [age 7] "How old do you have to be before you're an adult?"
Me: "I guess that depends on what you mean by 'adult'."
Luke: "You know. Old enough to do adult things."
Me: "Well, you can drive when you're 16, vote when you're 18, and buy cigarettes at 18 too."
Mom: "And you can buy alcohol when you're 21."
Me: "But being grown up is not really about how many years you have lived. There are a lot of people who are much older but don't act their age."
Luke: "Like you, Dad?"
Me: "Hey!"
