I've eaten lunch with the kids when they were younger. At age 14 I doubt my kid wants me to join him and I don't particularly want to be the primary target in the midst of a food fight. Ninth graders just don't find parents as interesting as kindergarteners.

I love kids.
I love their thought process and their energy and their curiosity and their energy and their thought process and their curiosity and their energy and their.... 
Ok, honestly, I'm the kid. I'm the one holding everyone up at the Museum of Natural History. I'm the one who built the chair, coffee table and blanket fort last night. I'm the one who makes my daughter jump on the bed. I'm the one who asks her "What's that?" and "Why?" I'm the one who goes out of the way to walk through the leaves.
I don't know what that says about me, but if it's bad...then go ahead and ground me

Could not have put it better myself.
I may have to grow older but I don't have to grow up...

I totally get what you are talking about.
Whenever I go into the lunch room to get my lunch, there's always this one Kindergartner who walks up and asks,"can you button my pants?". Why does this child choose me for god's sake and at lunch time??? "Where's your teacher child???", is all I keep thinking. That child always asks me.

How did you answer that one?...
"Everytime you ask a question, one piece of your hair falls out... "
My Wife's father lost half of his pinky finger while he was in the Navy. He always told his kids...
"That's what happens when you pick your nose."

Consider yourself lucky. It could be one of the teachers asking you.

They always want the pretty teacher to help them. Plus, you probably have that I-like-kids air about you. Plus you probably smell good. You're just a kid magnet, Noley!
