Dirty word stories and letters saying sorry...

Pity the poor school teacher that opened my (almost) 8 year old sons literacy school book this morning with a view to reading a pleasant little story for this is most definitely not what she received...

oh no. Instead, my (almost) 8 year old son had obviously grown tired of using his imagination to write said story and had instead decided (in his infinite wisdom of course..) to write a bunch of dirty words instead!!

In his SCHOOL BOOK for goodness sake.. because as we all know.. the very best place to write a bunch of dirty words that you DON'T want your teacher to see (because a) you're writing them instead of doing your school work and b) you're writing them in the first place actually...) iiiiiiiiiis in your school book.. that your teacher reads everyday.. of course... she'd never find them there would she??

Just for the record.. I have NO IDEA where he gets this idiot streak from although I suspect it might be something to do with "he who can get his arse stuck in a McDonald's highchair for fun and do various other things equally as idiotic on a regular basis" ...more commonly known as his father - you know him as Rich.

What is it with little boys and rude words? Why do they find them intriguing? I can tell you it doesn't change much as they get older.. the words go from being "bum", "poo", "wee", "willy" and "boobs" (as were Jake's particular favourite today) to much ruder versions but the stifled giggles and snickers are still there even though the boy has grown into a man.. Richard LOVES a good swear word.. a new word for the female genitalia is a particular winner and he'll often use his new descriptive word as many times in the day as he possibly can.. even going as far as to call his friends (or me) it repeatedly...lol.

Men... can't live with 'em... can't bury them under 10 ton of bricks...

So.. Jake has had a very stern talking to and has learned a tough lesson today, his teacher WILL make it known when his behaviour is less than acceptable and not only that but she'll make HIM tell me all about it too..

I have learned my son is.. well.. his father incarnate but I already knew that..you only have to look at them together to see he was never gonna get away with that one.. bloody peas in a pod those two.

I also learned what an almighty biatch I can be too and how much like my own mother I am in that respect (LMFAO soz Mum, that came out soooooooo wrong and weirdly.. quite right too...heheh) when I made Jake put pen to paper for the second time today, only this time writing an apology letter to his teacher which I thought was only fair and proper.

Then I learned my daughter Heather really is a genius when at just 5 years old she got her own pen and paper and wrote an actual legible letter to Jake's teacher to apologise for his dirty words and damn... her spelling was better than his!!! She obviously takes after her mother that one ;)

LOL
