On Parent-Teacher Conferences

The 10 y.o.: Dad – I have a note you need to sign and return for parent-teacher conference in March. Apparently my teachers feel it is ‘appropriate’ at this time to meet with you and mom. I have straight A’s, so I can’t think why…

The Dad: Perhaps ripping up your homework in front of your English teacher might have something to do with it.

The 10 y.o.: Hmm. Maybe. They say, ‘anger management’ I say, ‘creative genius’. I guess I’ll just have to agree to disagree with their labeling nomenclature.
