Do you know how easy it is to embarrass a tween? I took my girls up to Calgary last weekend to stay at my sister's for a visit. While we were there I pointed out locations of places I used to frequent when we lived in Calgary such as: "That's Glenmore Reservoir where I used to train and compete in Dragon Boat races", or "That's the neighborhood where I used to go for my Flamenco dance class".
My 10 year old was mostly silent and when I asked her what was wrong she said, "Why do you have to do such weird and embarrassing things?!" Parenting win.
