When I was a young teen, around 14 I think, my mother returned home from work to find a boy leaving our house dressed in a fake leather motor-cycle jacket covered in silver coloured press-studs, inverted black jeans adorned with dozens of zips, spiky cropped hair, and a safety pin through one ear.

Punk had reached our conservative village, and her shock turned to horror as she realised the boy standing before her was her own son. She stifled the urge to bust out laughing, remaining motherly stern as she said "don't you dare tell anyone where you live"! My mum is real cool but you only get to find that out by testing them, and tested the poor thing was during my teen years.

This is a cool capture and great for the challenge Jim. Regards, -Najinsky

Traveller - Three of the kids showed up at their final regular season game with the colored mohawks. I think that the kids are copying one of the pro players.
