You’re a teenager. It’s all complicated.

At 55 I think I'm almost ready to grow up a bit - stay young at heart, be open to possibilities and play when you can

We just got a teenager braces.

Growing up, I was taught that a man has to defend his family. When the wolf is trying to get in, you gotta stand in the doorway.

While I was growing up in Flushing, Queens, we socialized exclusively with other Chinese immigrants. I was forbidden to make contact with nonapproved, non-Chinese peers outside school. That was fine with me.

There's no limit to how complicated things can get, on account of one thing always leading to another.
