Response #2

The felt this story was pretty funny. I enjoyed the author's description of being a child. He gave a vivid illustration of how youngsters focus on what they are doing and nothing more. It was easy to relate his situation of saying a word without knowing the meaning. I too have said words in my youth without knowing the meaning, and so has my roommate. My favorite part was the ending when his mom drags him inside and begins yelling at him for using bad language. His response is where I think his main point is being made: experiences, in this case bad ones, almost force kids to grow up.
