Don't blame the teacher

My wife, Megan is a 6th grade science teacher. Today her students were giving reports on the scientists that they were assigned 3 weeks ago. The assignment involved dressing up like their scientist. One parent stormed into the office to complain that if her son Jason got beat up today, it was Megan's fault for requiring him to wear a dress to school. Jason was given the option to change out of the dress and into some bluejeans. He decided to just wear the jeans underneath the dress, even though he wouldn't present his report until the last period of the day.


Jason's report was spotty at best. Afterwards, Megan had only 3 things to tell the young man.


1. His scientists name was Carl Linnaeus, a man.


2. He was Swedish, not Scottish.


3. Scots wore kilts, not sleeveless denim jumpers with  two inches of  fringe on the bottom.

Sounds like science isn't the only issue with which little Jason is grappling.\r \r I'm tempted to call \"bullshit\" on this story. If it is true, it is the funniest thing I've read in a loooooooong time. \r \r Thumbs up for the benefit of the doubt.

Sad but true story, you just have to take my word for it. This did happend to my wife, yesterday. (not the teacher of her hairdressers sisters cousins lesbian lovers test tube baby.) The kid has a history of not listening, not checking facts, and being an idiot. (seems to run in his family) \r \r Apparently, he read that Linnaeus was Swedish and thought that those were the guys who wore dresses...\r \r She comes home with horror stories from work all the time, this one just made me laugh.\r Yeah, I think the kid liked the attention of wearing the dress all day too.\r These are the people who will be caring for us in our old age.\r \r Because of this, my retirement plan involves a bottle of scotch and a .45.\r

LMAO both at the story and at the last anecdote. Perhaps it was the only little Jason could wear the dress that he's secretly been dying to put on without mommy and daddy beating 7 kinds of shit out of him!
