FIPS Parenting Tip #2: Always Check Your Kid's Homework


Some 4th grade class was supposedly making pictures of what they wanted to be when they grew up.
The teacher saw this picture and freaked- but here's how the mom responded:
Dear Mrs. Jones,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer.
I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it. Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot.
From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Chase
Pretty funny, but it's obviously fake:
- The printing on the drawing looks too neat.
- No fourth-grader in the United States would publicly use the word Mommy for fear of a classmate beatdown
- Mrs. Jones? Nga Plz.
Meh, I'll give 'em the benefit of the doubt - maybe it's a re-enactment. In any case, check your kid's damn homework.
