war and peace
We went to a peace rally and a fight broke out between my two sons.... Later we stopped at this cannon and they flashed spontaneous peace signs, unaware of the irony. Our troops will now be sentenced to 15-month tours of Hades . How does a boy grow into a man?

A boy becomes a man by writing 100 poems for every fistfight he loses, and by kissing 7 girls for every fistfight he wins.
"A true warrior finds balance in all things."
-Master Splinter (from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Saturday morning cartoon).
A boy tends to consider his fists a first option. A man tends to see them as the last and tries to avoid situations where they are the only option.
