Teenagers? In Ireland we... «Teacher Man»
chocolat27 мая 2010Teenagers? In Ireland we saw them in American movies - angry-looking, never smiling, driving around in cars - and we wondered why they were angry and unsmiling. They had food and clothes and money, and they were still mean to their parents. There were no teenagers in Ireland, not in my world. You were a child. You went to school until you were fourteen. If you weren't polite to your parents, they hit you across the face with a belt. You grew up, got a boring job, got married, drank your beer on a Friday night, and kept your wife busy with babies.
