Life of a 13 year old- Make some breakfast for your kids

You groggily get up and make you way downstairs. You start making your world famous pancakes just as your kids begin to come down. They sit obediently at the table, but they don't make eye contact with each other. Something must be wrong you think. No matter, nothing cheers up the morning like some fresh flap jacks.

You serve up a platter for both your kids and sit next to them. "So kids, how it going?", you say cheerily. Your son, Alex, happily replies, "Its great dad! I got an A in my math test yesterday!".

"Well good for you son!", you reply. "And how bout you Rachel?"

"Its good...", she drones.

You:

• Tell Rachel she should stay at home today

• Clean up the plates and go upstairs

• Drive down town and look for something fun to do
