My younger brother, whose voice had recently gone through the change, told our youngest brother that his adam's apple was actually an alien. He told him that it crawled into your mouth when you turned 15 and it made your voice deeper. My parent's would always give my youngest brother weird looks when he would mention my other brother's alien and his fear of getting older.
