Arch Enemy

Son #1 and I spotted a little boy walking with his father from the baseball field today.

Son #1: There's Gaylon -- my arch enemy.
Me: You have an arch enemy?
Son #1: Yeah, he tried to beat me up on the bus one day.
Me: Oh no! What happened?
Son #1: Well, turns out that I'm stronger.
Me: While I don't approve of fighting, I must admit that I'm glad you won.
Son #1: He challenged me to a rematch after school one day after that.
Me: And?
Son #1: Apparently I'm still stronger.

Sheesh. What else goes on in these kids' lives that we're completely unaware of?
