Learning About Puberty Pillows

'Thank goodness you were wrong mom, dad says a period is what comes at the end of a sentence.'

"Son, you're old enough now for The Talk: everything you need to know about compound interest."

'Well, Tommy, you've grown a foot since the last time I saw you!'

'Wow! That's some growth spurt!'

'You know they've reached puberty when they're more interested in Dr. Ruth than Babe Ruth.'

"I don't know why I worry...Baldo's just a normal boy. It's good to see him maturing...making friends...with nice girls...exploring new feelings...and desires.... You have to go home now."

"Peach fuzz. How does a nectarine know when it reaches puberty?"

'Since we're being so honest, perhaps I should mention that I liked you better as an egg.'

"Well, I've come this close to asking out Sylvia Sanchez. But I'm just an average guy! Nothing about me says 'I'm cool! Look at me!'"

'And where have you been all day young lady? Your mother and I have been worried sick!'

"Oh come now, darling. When I was your age, I felt different, too."

"Thank you. Now we'd like to do our big hit -- I Can't Wait to be 16'."

"All this running around you do at night … it’s killing your mother."

'… and another thing … the only reason you know it's my birthday to begin with, is because we were all born on the same day!'

Suddenly...puberty hit Irwin!

"I was 13 once. It was hard."
