The American Life goes in to the depths of Middle School, place where life is great and carefree, and place for others that they dread and try to forget about once they are there. Two completely different segments, one dances, the other on a Mexican- American family dealt with struggles. Dances, the nerves that come with it and the stress, will it make your social status go up or now will you be the next story for a couple of weeks. Boys and girls alike nervous about if they should ask someone or say yes or no to someone asking. The idea that they are dating for 20 minutes and they have an off and on relationship, only in middle school does this work. Middle school relationship destined for failure due to no middle school sweetheart. The idea of this mini adulthood that lies with in the world of middle school and they are trying to survive it.
I love the fact that you called it 'mini adulthood' definitely a different aproach than the other posts regarding this podcast.x
