Earlier this spring, Theo was preparing to go on a week-long trip with his classmates. As we were helping him pack up, I had a little chat with him about ways to ensure he is viewed as an 'asset' rather than an 'ass'. He seemed to get it. We talked about listening, about offering to help, about using discretion and stepping back when other's behavior made him wonder. He was on board, and I wasn't worried. Until he decided to pack his singing Justin Beiber toothbrush. Oh poor chaperone. We owe you.
