mickeym'This' being the chance to laugh at me *g* I know ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
raynedanser is probably still snorting and giggling.
I bought Matthew a...well, it's a sex toy. On the order of the Fleshlight, though not as expensive (holy shit, those things are like, $70!) I heard him and Justin talking about it, and Justin saying he used to have one and it was better than just jerking off--and honestly? If this helps calm him down a little, it'll be money well-spent. I actually feel sorry for teenagers, all those hormones wanting out, and Matthew wants a girlfriend SO BAD, but he comes on too strong pretty much all the time...and honestly, he doesn't need to be sexually active at 16. So. It arrived today, and so tonight was another chapter in the ongoing saga of sex-and-my-kid; he couldn't read the stuff on the box because they used a font that was almost like script, and he can't read that, so I got to read it to him. Then had to look at it because he says, "I think something's wrong, I'm not sure I can even fit one finger in it" (HEADDESK TO INFINITY, tyvm). Then he says, "okay, I'm going to be quiet now for a few minutes." My last words were SHUT THE DAMN DOOR, and then I put my headphones on. He finally comes out, like, half an hour later, and I'm all, "I do not want any information about what you just did--" And the smartass says to me, "how do I clean it inside?"
ACK. *Boundaries*, Matthew!
Conversations earlier in the night with him and Justin included teenage pregnancy and the prevention of such, breastfeeding, how long new mothers should wait after childbirth to have sex again, and bestiality. I have no idea how we got on that last one, except it had something to do with dog that follows Justin's character around in the video game "Fable".
I could not MAKE THIS SHIT UP IF I WANTED TO.
Also, teen-related drama so far this week: Justin's latest gf is 19 (he won't be 17 until May) who is due to give birth (not his baby, he's only been seeing her for a week or two) in two weeks' time. He hasn't told his parents that she's pregnant, nor that he's told HER he wants to "be there for her, and for the baby, be a father to the baby". Then he asked if he could give her my number for when she goes into labor, if his folks haven't given him his phone back yet.
Eric had a major row with his parents because he snuck out to go visit his girlfriend ("I told my grandma, but I don't know if she heard me." "Maybe you should have, I don't know, told your mom or your dad??")...except as it turned out, it wasn't that, or that alone, that they're upset about. The phone he got for his birthday a couple of months ago, they're paying for it, and money's tight and they want to take it away. So Eric's response to that was, "I'll drop out of school and get a job so I can pay for it. And I'll probably have to start paying rent anyway." Mind you, Eric is *four months* from graduation. Why the hell he thinks this makes any sort of sense is beyond me. So his dad came over to pick him up -- which surprised me, because he hadn't been at our house, but it seems he told his dad that's where he was, intending to walk quickly (quicker?) from his gf's house to our house. His dad wasn't happy. I wasn't happy. Eric...I don't know. The kid doesn't *talk*. Having a conversation with him is nearly impossible; everything is 'yes' 'no' I don't know'. Justin says it's always been that way in his house. None of them talk to each other.
Bottom line, Eric's dad won't let him drop out (thank god). I don't know how the phone issue will be resolved.
Meanwhile, Matthew's freaking out because it's nearly Valentine's Day and he misses Mallory, and he'll KILL YOU WITH HIS BRAIN if you mention Valentine's Day around him. I told him to suck it up and get over it. He's had (supposedly) four "girlfriends" since Mallory was taken out of school -- he has one right now, her name is Misty, though as near as I can tell for Matthew being girlfriend/boyfriend is mainly about texting, note-passing, and holding hands during lunch. In any case, I told him it's disrespectful to the current gf to be whining and moaning about valentine's day in relation to the past gf.
OMG TEENAGED BOYS. And it's only Wednesday night.

My life is never, ever, EVER dull, that's for sure!
