Yesterday Carson was asking if he could go to an overnight activity at school and my questions started flowing. " What is this for? How much money? Who wants you to go? ....."  There is a classmate of Carson's that wanted him to go and be on his volleyball team.  The activity is a Volleyball-a-thon.  Anyway I started asking questions about this kid by asking "Is he in any of your classes?" 

Carson got flustered and said "Mom, he's an okay kid."

Me, "I was just asking if he was in any of your classes."

Carson, "Mom, I don't know how to do a background check."
