Stop trying to figure out how to talk to them. We built the Brave new worlds they walked out into by being our weird, barely raised(regardless of family income), wiiiild assed yet nerdy selves. They're not looking for you to pander to them. They're waiting on you to lead, letting your own freak flags fly. Just...be you. It's a combo of how you wished you'd been talked to and what you know actually worked, rough and tumble tho it may have been.

Remember.

It's not that it didn't hurt, or we didn't cry. It's that we understood "Walk it Off~"
