Ask Blake Picture

Dear Blake,

I’m 15 years old in the 9th grade and I have no aspirations other than being a wife and mother someday. My friends think I’m crazy and think I should have some sort of career. What do you think?

Signed, Mishelle

Dear Mishelle,

The divorce rate in America is at 50% so it’s a good idea for you to be able to take care of yourself in the likelihood you and your husband split. If you don’t, you and your kids will probably end up on the streets panhandling, or you’ll be reduced to living in a homeless shelter while your whiney little brats are constantly telling you how much they miss their drunken unemployed father. If you have to get married, make sure it’s an old wealthy man in poor health. And always remember how brittle a senior citizens bones are every time he’s in taking a stroll in his walker near a flight of stairs (if you know what I mean). I hope this helps.

Blake
