Still Say Home
You haven't lived in your parents' house for years. You have your own place, your own bed, your own bins to put out. But when you get in the car on a Friday you say you're going home, and everyone knows which house you mean.
When does that stop being home?
Then ask
- What would have to change in that house before the word came off it? New owners? Your mother gone? The road renamed?
- Is there anywhere you've lived that never got the word at all?
- In ten years, what will you be pointing at when you say it?
The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
