Tapescript
Woman:So, what are you doing this afternoon, Anna?
Girl:I’m going to the mall with John. He just got his driver’s license.
Woman:I’m sorry. You can’t go with John. I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to drive. They aren’t serious enough at that age.
Girl:But I have to go to the mall. Gaby’s getting her ears pierced and I want to watch.
Woman:I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to get their ears pierced. They might be sorry later.
Girl:I agree, but it’s fun to watch. Is it OK if we take the bus?
Woman:Well, I guess so.
Girl:Great! I want to buy a new blouse at the mall, too.
Woman:What kind are you going to buy? Maybe I should go with you.
Girl:Aw, Mom. I’m not a child. I think teenagers should be allowed to choose their own clothes.
Woman:Well, I just want to be sure you get something nice.
