Say What?

J.T. said 'penis' at school today during a project. I don't know why, or in what context.

So?

He got a moved from a green face to a yellow face for it. Really? Is that necessary?

I don't see what the big deal is...what's a penis here and there?

That seems like a good thing to have a "chat" about with a kid, but not something worth a demerit. It is a body part -- do they get punished for saying, "nose"?

I agree Jen...I think "let's not say that in class" would have been sufficient and then move on!

Exactly, Mary!

Owen got in trouble for saying that at school too. I think the teachers need to chill out!

Julie said...

I agree Kelly...they could say a lot worse!

Poor boys! They are learning about that very healthy word -- I mean don't all the experts say to teach them the correct word -- and then they get punished. They must get so confused.

I can just imagine if we taught him something that sounded funny...he would want to say THAT all the time!
