It Ought To Be A Crime

My 12-year-old son, Jon asked, "Dad, what does biracial mean?"

I replied, "It's a person who is a mixture of two races. A good example of someone who's biracial is Halle Berry. One of her parents is white and the other is black."

"Who's Halle Berry?"

"ACK! You're shitting me? You know who Halle Berry is."

"Nope."

"She's this gorgeous black actress. My God..." I looked at my other son who is 13 years old and was sitting in the living room, "Zac, you know who she is? Don't you?"

Zac replied, "I've heard of her but I don't know what she looks like."

"You guys are so friggin' grounded."
