Kids. Don't you just love 'em?<br /><br />"Child Molester"<br /><br />As I left the supermarket, I noticed two little<br />kids, maybe six or seven years old, selling<br />candy bars in front of the store to raise<br />money for their school band.<br /><br />"I'll buy a chocolate bar on one condition,"<br />I said to one of the boys. "That you eat it for<br />me." As I handed him back the candy bar,<br />he shook his head. "I can't," he said.<br /><br />"Why not?"<br /><br />Looking me in the eye, he responded gravely,<br />"Because I'm not supposed to take candy<br />from strangers."<br />__________________________________________________<br /><br />"Spelling"<br /><br />My daughter Sydney is in the first grade and<br />doing very well especially in spelling. A couple<br />of weeks ago she came home with her new words<br />and we were studying them for her upcoming test.<br />We came to the word "knit" and I asked her to spell<br />it. She said, "n-i-t". I said, "No, try again."<br /><br />She said, very slowly, "n-i-t".<br /><br />I said, "Sydney, I know you know how to spell this<br />word, try again." Very aggravated and verrrrry<br />slowly (like I was just not getting the whole picture)<br />she spelled, "N-I-T!" Finally I told her the correct<br />spelling, k-n-i-t. She looked at me, hands on hips<br />and said, "THE K is SILENT!!!"
