The cat is out of the box

It's been a while since the world's most perfect teenager became better than me in every school subject. Until today, I've managed to hide my ignorance from Junior by nodding and asking obvious questions as we go over his homework, but today the lie was exposed.

The offspring had suspected for a while that I didn't understand everything and today he let me walk straight into the trap. All I could do was throw in the towel and come clean.

Now I have two options, either make him do his homework and trust that he won't lie to me, or get him a study buddy. Before I decide, I'll talk to Junior and ask what he wants, but the decision will be mine.
