Ever had a teacher question you over something your kid said??

[nealymouse]

My DD drew a lovely picture of our whole family dead in our graves when she was in k-garden. Teacher called me and wanted to know if my DD was in councling and if not she really needed to be. Knowing my DD was OK there had to be more to this.

Talking to my DD she told me how much she missed her hamster Bethany who had just died and we as a family buried her so she draw a picture of the family visiting her in her grave.

I have to say I was a bit freaked at 1st but after talking to DD she told me that I said "Well you said we could visit Bethany at her grave !!!!!

Boy you really have to be careful how you word things to little ones !!!!

I got a call from my 6 year olds speech teacher asking us if we were sending him to bed without supper? I was shocked since I never did that but about a week before I had sent him to bed without dessert, his favorite part of dinner. HE had her conviced so she was bringing him a treat and was worried he was not getting enough to eat. He had her convinced. She really grilled me to the point that I thought SS was going to come out. Then I had a BRILLIANT idea. I told her to talk to my oldest boy. To go right there, before I could talk to him and ask the 8 year old. She called back an hour later and apologised. I then told her to stop bringing my son treats because she was being played. My son then missed dessert for a week for lying. Yes, he knew what he was doing. When asked he admited the whole scheme. He got confused the first time then just went along with it.

My 6 year old is adopted and has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome so we all watch him for some fantastic tales. Perfectly normal for kids with FAS.

When my son was in kindergarten, he had a loose tooth that the second grade teacher, who was on lunch duty, pulled out at lunch. My son told me that she really was a dentist, which still gives me a chuckle everytime I see her, which is often, because my son is now in second grade.

I shudder to think of some of the things he might tell the teachers, but, none have really made it back to us. For a time, he told everybody that his dad was a "bald chicken", because he is a chicken and he's bald. Actually, my husband has thick, curly black hair, so, nothing could be further from the truth. It annoyed my husband, so, he no longer says it.

In particular, he sometimes tells me that I spank him all the time. Once in a great while, I might smack his fully clothed bottom with my open hand, which probably makes noise more that it hurts. I can't remember the last time I swatted him, but, when he gets too annoying, I mention that if he doesn't stop, I will swat him. He usually stops, so, he doesn't get spanked.

when my oldest son was in kindergarten he was overheard correcting another boy on the proper terms for male and female anatomy. A boy has a ***** a girl has a china. His teacher nearly cracked up when she heard that.

A teacher friend of mine had a police officer visit and somehow jail was mentioned. She said several little hands went up in the air. It seems several of her students had stories about mommy or daddy going to jail now that's too sad.

My dd3 has told people she has a mom, sister and grandfater that went to jail which, is completely not true and I don't know were she gets it from. She has a whole family that is imaginary. sometimes if you say somehthing about them she will tell you they aren't real , but she has everyone convince that we are one crazy family!

My friends dd was in kindergarten and everyone was asked what thier mom and dad's did. She said her mom cleans the house and her dad watches football! (he is a capenter) They were also asked why they love thier parents and another friends dd said because her dad kicked her tooth out. Her tooth was loose and she fell into her fathers foot.

Oh my gosh, these are hysterical. I especially loved the one about the preschooler seeing her parents in clothes at graduation. I bet the rest of the parents that were at the graduation loved it too.

When my son was in Kinder we lived in a very small on military base housing. Our kitchen was so small and the stove was underneath the fire alarm. Every time I cooked the alarm went off. My sons' school had fire awareness day and the teacher asked the kids what they should do if the fire alarm went off in the house. My son told the teacher that if the fire alarm went off in our house not to worry it only meant Mom was cooking dinner. I am sure she must have thought I was a horrible cook.

When my little sister was young (she is all grown up at 22 now) and in Kindergarden, she used to tell the teacher that my mom would put her in the washer and dryer instead of a bath or shower at night. According to her, it wasn't so bad, except when the dryer was tumbling and her head kept hitting the side!

My DD seems to be the one who comes up the the great lines for our family. In 4 year PS the teachers interviewed the kids & filled in the answers for the annual spaghetti night. DD's page cracked everyone up.

I love my family because: "they all work for me."

A couple weeks ago after picking up the kids from school I asked DD what she did that day. Her friend Andy had followed her around all day. When I asked what else she did in school she paused and said...with her southern accent...what sounded like "well, we had sex in math." I knew that I had misunderstood her & tried to keep a straight face asking her to repeat what she said. "Mommy, YOU KNOW! SAXON math!" ROFL! I relayed the story to the teachers & administrators the next time I worked in the office. They cracked up & wonder how many times kids have said that but they are so use to hearing it that they don't even hear the accent with the wrong word.

Just last week, my ds4's teacher called very concerned. Apparently, Matt was acting fine, but told her that his pee pee was changing colors, and because of his medical history, she wanted to make she that he was ok. She was wondering if she should send him to the nurses office. She was so serious! I almost died laughing! I explained to her that earlier that morning I had given Matt a bath, and it was a little cold when he got out. He noticed (for the first time apparently) that when he's cold, his pee pee turns a little purple. Totally freaked him out, and apparently he was still worried about it when he got to school so he told his teacher about it. She still didn't understand why I was laughing so much, but I thought it was the funniest thing in the world at the time!

My son told his kindergarten teacher that his dad used to be a girl....
Apparently, he had been listening to my MIL going on about the way he looked when he was in high school and had long hair.

i recall a kindergartener being upset one morning and telling me her daddy had misbehaved at worked so he was'nt going to "get to play at the playground anymore and has to dig up bodies". when mom came in to pick the child up i let her know about the conversation and she questioned the child about it (in front of me)-apparantly the child had overheard her parents talking the night before and put her own "spin" on what it meant. dad had been working "swing shift" (she thought it meant he got to play on swings and slides all day) and was transitioning to "graveyards" (she figured he was going to be a gravedigger). we had the best laugh over that one-and mom instructed dad to start refering to the shifts by "nights, days..." to avoid any more confusion

Well this is not something my youngest DS said but what he did.

First grade teached was a sweet young lady but she had a bad case of bowed teeth. Her teeth were so large that she could not close her mouth without seeing teeth.

Well one day at dinner I asked my youngest DS how school went. DS excitingly tells me "Today was show and tell." I didn't know this so I asked him what he took. Innocently he said, "My bubba teeth." If anyone knows what these are it is fake teeth that are grundgy looking and bowed and you can't close your mouth with them in.

My DH spit out what he was eating and ran to another room laughing. I sat at the table horrified at what the teacher must have thought. For the rest of the year I had a hard time looking at the teacher without feeling embarrassed.

Years ago when my ds was in first grade (he's 21 now) we were eating dinner and I was asking him what they did in school that day. He told me they were learning about drugs. At that time I used to smoke cigarettes. I was also vice president of the PTA and had been a room mother forever. He tells me that he told the teacher and the class that I smoke pot alll the time. My dinner feel out of my mouth and I went nuts. I couldn't believe he said that . I was like, what are you talking about? When I got the story out of him he thought that smoking pot was the same as smoking cigarettes.

Needless to say I went over to see the teacher the next morning. Luckily she knew me for years and understood. I kept waiting that night for DYFS to come. We still kid him about that day.

My mother was very active in the school when my brother and I were in our early elementary years. (mid 70's). While I was in Kindergarten, my teacher told my mother she was not aware that my mom had another baby. I kept talking about Leroy. Mom laughed and told her Leroy was one of the new kittens.

Long before answering machines were around, my youngest sister answered the phone at home. She was probably around 4. It was a business call for my dad. The man asked if her daddy was home, no, is your mommy home. "She's going poopy on the potty." My mother was MORTIFIED!!!

When I was in kindergarten I told my teacher we ate pigeon every week for dinner.

The teacher called that night asking if we were having financial problems and offered us some governmental support agencies. My mother informed her that my grandfather called Cornish Hens (little chickens) pigeons as a joke.

Needless to say it has been a family joke ever since.

My dad owned a construction company, so he was outside most of the year and kept much of the resulting tan in the winter.

I would describe my dad as being brown, so people thought he was African-American. They were surprised, since I am extremely pale, and more so when they met him and he turned out to be a tan Caucasian man.
