Priceless

This is one of those stories that I have to write down because it was Jayda-classic.

A few months ago when picking up Jayda from school, she mentioned that she got detention. When I asked her why, the conversation went a bit like this...

"Why were you in detention?"

"Because (random boy) called me hot, and not like the sweaty hot, the Hollywood kind of hot, and it's inappropriate!"

"So why were YOU in detention?"

"Because I punched him in the stomach."

I pretty much laughed the whole way home, a bit stumped at how to respond. In a way I'm glad that she's not a girl willing to be objectified, but in that poor boy's defense, he probably just felt that he was paying her a compliment. Either way, violence is not the answer, so we discussed alternative ways to deal with those kinds of situations. Ah, let the girl drama begin, those teen years are going to be fun.
