IT’S TIME TO HAVE THE TOUGH TALK ABOUT HOW TO PAY FOR COLLEGE JUST BECAUSE MY SON IS HAVING A DISAPPOINTING YEAR DOESN’T MEAN I CAN’T BE HAPPY FOR MY FRIEND’S TEEN It's high school football season, so for our family—and for my good friend's family, too—it's go time! Our favorite season of the year is finally upon us once more. This year though, my senior son broke his leg in practice a week before his first game and had to have surgery to repair it.

We’d just entered our freshman year and she was fixing her hair in front of a mirror that hung on a concrete wall. I hated gym class. I hated changing. I hated getting sweaty. I hated how frizzy a game of volleyball or basketball made my hair. I walked by her and smiled at her reflection. I liked the way she smelled and was jealous of her non-frizzy hair. “I hate how I look after gym class,” she said. “I might as well not even bother getting ...
