Being all emo and walking around with oversized headphones is a prerogative of angsty teenagers, I get that. I am mentally prepared to deal with that when the kids turn 13. But 2-and-a-half, that’s kind of a little early, innit?
Sullen emo expressions, check. Giant earphones, check. General air of disinterest, check. Poser earphone-grabbing actions, check.
I was going on and on about how he’s supposed to finish his lunch before he could go to the playground and he was staring at me blankly like “Are you talking to me momma? This is awesome I can’t hear a single word you’re saying.. *po-po-po-poker face*”
Just one question: Am I going to have to deal with this for the next 15 years or does this mean he will grow out of this by 6?
Please say it’s the latter.

Hahaha! In MY experience, if it starts at 2.5 y.o., then u r pretty much scr*wed. It’ll last for the next 15.. or make that 16 years. The consolation is boys snap out of it faster. Check out my blog on my emo kids at home – http://www.storyofbing.com/?p=7000
Hope your head’s doing better!

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I’m not going to survive 16 years of this. Your post is not encouraging at all, but at least your kids are out of that phase.
16 years x 4 or 5 kids = I will seriously lose all my hair by 40.
Oh, and my head is much better thanks! As long as I don’t touch it.
