Once again My kidss prove they are smarter
Ok, I’m not sure but I either live with the descendant of Mr.Owl or Gandi
During supper I was having a conversation with Calvin about The Civil Rights Movement; in particular Rosa Parks, (famous for not giving up her seat in Montgomery, Al). http://teacher.scholastic.com/rosa/
After a time he asked if I was prejudice…answer:”Hummm, I guess a little. I have had some black friends but I don’t particularly feel comfortable enough to want to live in an all black neighborhood. I don’t know, just the culture is different, the walk and talk is different…I guess”
At this point Cal gets up from the table and begins walking heal/toe and waddling a bit around the table looking like Charlie Chaplin.
Me “Cal! What the hell are you doing? Go finish your supper”.
Cal “I’m a penguin”
Me “That’s nice, now go eat”
Cal ”I may walk funny but I’m still a bird”
Me “Huh?”
Cal “I don’t fly either, I swim”.
Me I said nothing, starting to catch on to where this is going.
Cal “I may not look or act like a bird to you but I’m still a bird”
Does anyone else’s kids do this to them?
