Parents always seem to end up comparing notes, and Michelle Obama and David Letterman are no exception. Dave’s having problems with Harry – who must be quite the handful at only eleven-years-old. Dave appears to be genuinely concerned – he is going to be home all of the time, soon. However, Michelle exhibits the calm of one who has matters under control.

In any case, the First Lady is able to offer Dave assurance that the moody stage will pass – eventually.
Michelle Obama observes that “Signing Day” means a big celebration for kids with athletic prowess and the dream of graduating from college one day. A new program would encourage a celebration called ‘Signing Day’ for every high school graduate who plans to continue his or her education at college or a vocational school.
