Dad: Baldo's a good kid, huh? Dad: I mean, I'm always here for guidance... But I think it's time I let him be a young man. Tia: Is he finally bigger than you? Dad: By a quarter inch and 15 pounds.
By the time he was 15 my brother was 168 pounds and 5 foot 9 inches. My mother by comparison at the time was 112 pounds and was 5 foot even. One day he said something really cheeky to mum and as he walked away she whipped him smartly with a rolled up towel. When he turned around to her she said " I don’t care how big you get I am your mother and you will respect me. Cheek me like that again and I will give a clip around the ear even if I have to stand on a chair to do it!" He thought twice about being cheeky after that.
