Comments:
1) Mind boggling expose of a, I think, delinquent teen (You know he’strouble when he ends his sentences with ‘Eh?’) who gets frustrated withschool and starts etching out on his desk, soon he’s visiting hisprincipal and discussing ‘infantile reactions’. Funny comparisonsbetween 5 yr olds and teenagers are shown, and soon the teenager makesa chart and thinks HARD about how ‘old he is today’. He finally admitsto being 10 years old when he doesn’t get what he wants (His dad rankshim LOWER HAHAHA) and tells his principal he’ll try to start acting hisage BY NEXT YEAR. Interesting to note as well how school staff arequite willing to give kids weapons.
Drama, Short
