Telling your 14-year-old to do anything can be very much like living on a remote island and talking to yourself. Illustration Friday, illustration by Kim Carney.
Very clever and too hilarious. My son actually sends me chat messages from upstairs to ask me what's for dinner, I guess he thinks the idea of coming downstairs is too remote. You wait Kim, your day is coming!
Nice, clear style! I like it.
