You’re on a roll tonight.
I was heading off to sleep when I saw this ping. My middle son especially drives me crazy turning everything into a weapon. At his homeschool co-op, he takes a class on weapons and warfare. He saw the class on the schedule, and that’s what he wanted. I always wonder, what would they have done with him in school? I guess this story answers that question.
All boys everywhere in the world at a particular age go into total stick orientation. Very often these sticks are turned into guns. If a stick isn’t available, then whatever else is handy is used. It also is turned into a gun.
My nephew is also typically boy in this regard which drives my liberal to the core sister-in-law to distraction. But she also realized that she was fighting a losing battle.
