(Yes, I know I've recced the blog before, but this article in particular just struck a chord with me today.)
Quote: "What we are selling is not an act of congress or a treaty. We are selling the idea of limits. We are selling the idea of the end of the global adolescent growth spurt.
We are selling adulthood, a concept that seems almost forgotten these days.
In the end, we are losing this stage of the battle because adolescence is more fun than adulthood."
... Can we grow up, collectively?
