Teenage experiments with sex, drugs & rock-n-roll
When I was 13, bat mitzvah season was in full-swing. Every weekend, a different hotel.
I didn’t get a bat mitzvah. My parents said it was just an excuse for a party, not a rite of passage the way it would have been if I was a boy. But I attended lots of them.
And now it’s started for my daughter. 13. Make-up done at Sephora, shoes purchased at Macy’s, a dress she wore recently in a friend’s wedding. Bat mitzvah season has begun.
