Tomfoolery

Read an article which centered on the foolish behavior of some teens.  A woman commented to the effect that she had been a middle school teacher for many years and it was her observation that taken by ones most youngsters are good and well behaved people; it is when you get them in groups that the nonsense takes over.

I taught junior high school kids for many years and in general I concur with the lady's observation.  Dad stated the principle in these words:
One boy's a boy; two boys, a half-boy; three boys, no boy at all.

Grace, not specifically referring to that, but it is an excellent example.
