hard.
Son: You don't know, mother, do you? Any
case, I don't want to be a president, or famous
or what.
Mother: Dear, what do you want to be when
you become an adult?
Son: Don't know yet, want to be kind, loved by
everybody, especially beautiful girls.
Mother: I know what you mean; love affairs
are very exciting and fun but in order to have
them you need to study very hard.
Son: What do I have to study for that?
Mother: I'm not sure, Son, let me think...I have
a great idea. Please talk to your teacher next
time you see her.
Son: Ok, I will. By the way, mother, what did
you study at school?
Mother: That's a very good question, dear, I'm
not sure I can answer that but it was fun to go
because there were a lot of handsome boys
who chased me. I was very busy.
Son: I know, mom, but I don't like school and
classes are boring.
Son: Why do I have to graduate? What's the
point? I know lots of people who don't like
studying.
Son: Like who?
Son: What did they learn in school?
Son: You don't know, mother, do you? Any
case, I don't want to be a president, or famous
or what.
Son: Don't know yet, want to be kind, loved by
everybody, especially beautiful girls.

to be loved by everybody not just girls.
