Question Questions

QUESTION

I am a teacher and try to ask my students questions that they can intuitively answer. They are usually about things they see in every day life. Is there a way to avoid getting answers that are given by students who are extremely perceptive?

ANSWER

Children today live in a much more open society. They see and hear things that we're not aware that they're picking up on as witnessed by the following story. One teacher blindfolded one of her students and popped a Hershey's Kiss into his mouth then asked him...

"What does a kiss taste like?" she asked. "Do you know what it is?"

"No, I don't," said the little boy.

'Okay, I'll give you a clue," she said. "It's the thing your daddy wants from your Mom before he goes to work."

Suddenly, a little girl at the back of the room yelled "Spit it out you idiot, it's a piece of ass!"

Hey Jacqui,

Thanks for popping in. It's great to hear from you. I know what it's like to be busy, but we can't let those dreams die ... so keep on keepin' on!

I'm only doing one post a week instead of daily like before, but the response has been nice. And I just received an invitation to be a guest on a nationally syndicated radio show, which will a first for me.

Keep in touch...

So would this make chocolate chips pieces of anorexic asses? :)

On a completely unrelated note, I just did a post about Meloncutter. After his worrisome recent post, I emailed him to make sure he was ok.
As per his request, I'm letting people know.

I'm visiting everyone he's linked to in his sidebar, to help spread the word.

It is so saddening that at their young age they are exposed at the rotting world. Our children are supposed to be enjoying the innocence of a child.
