Quote by Tyra Banks

They are giving their parents the old iPad in exchange for the new one. It's a whole different world nowadays and they are in control and in charge of technology. It's scary but at the same time it's exciting. There are a lot of choices for them.”

This NEVER works. Girls, let him like you with your clothes on.”
