There I go, in sharing my son's typical teenage dreams
Though I have an open mind to accept and expect little changes during teenage , tough for many, life changing for a few and shocking for me.
Till last year he was showing a lot of interest in academics, very focused , punctual , obedient and meticulous. He has a good memory and used it well in academics.
I had lot of hopes that he will be one of the school toppers in his 10th std exams a few months away from now .
There, in these few months his adolescence took over his mind and body telling me that he wants to be an actor.( only a HERO ok )
My simple, typical tambrahm mind , thought that my son will take up science, become an engineer (though not from IIT) and go to The US to get a Ph. D is fading away. He promptly replies " Amma don't worry, I will still make it to the US for a song sequence with one of the pretty actress".
He practices all the dance moves, dresses up like his favourite hero , pierces his ears ,rehearsing his acting skills with the new app and answers me with cinema dialogues like :
ME HIM
May be the Y chromosomes of my husband has started to play a major role , as acting ( pun intended :p) and modelling runs in his family .
Just now I was relieved that my daughter dropped the idea of entering the media world, and this one has started now .
By reasoning, pleading , coaxing , threatening, bribing , putting my foot down , I think I will succeed in getting him a Ph. D ( Pass High school with Difficulty)
Bidding goodbye with my thoughts wandering how am I going to deal with my teenage son's dreams and tantrums.
Follow me .

- Think of another passion - Zindhagi na milegi dhobara
- Why not engineering? - Vellai illa Patadhari
- Bring the water-can - Carries it in his shoulder like Bhahubali
- Why low marks ? - Katham Katham \m/

DeleteModelling, acting are all forms of art by itself, aunty. Do give it a try when the interest level is so high. Engineering/B.Com is not the only way people are supposed to live, no such rules :D
