Sixteen-year-old Jeremy Duncan is learning to navigate residential byways and high school hallways while the parentals, a.k.a. Connie and Walt Duncan, try to keep pace and find a little peace.
From hormones to how-come-I'm-not-like-everyone-else questions and insecurities, Borgman and Scott continue to successfully tell teenage horror stories. Artfully exploring insecurities, societal pressures, and just plain teenage goofiness, Scott and Borgman contrast the experiences of adolescence and parenthood.
This comic strip is my life. Jeremy is Owen. Dan is Walt. I am Connie. It's pathetic, it's hilarious, it's just dead-on. If you wonder what living with a teenaged boy is like, this is the real stuff.
