Be a man

Advisory is a class for every new sixth grader in the school. The teachers of advisory are supposed to help students become organized, learn life skills, and build a better school community. I felt that one particular topic that needed to be addressed was what defines a man. A, who can only be described as a 40 year old man trapped in a 4' 5" sixth graders body, felt that being a man was a rather complex affair:

"To be a man, you have to grow up, and have a car. And you need a job, and a pretty girl. A house too, and kids. And you have to put the food on the table."
