what teachers are doing these days

today at lunchtime, the teacher gave one of the students lunch money that his mom had given her earlier that morning.

now this little boy knew that the money was from his mom. that's what makes this story so funny.

when the teacher gave the money to this little boy, another boy in front of him in line turned around and said, "hey, did she just give you that money?"

the first boy shrugged his shoulders and said, "yeah, i guess that's what they're doing now."

i had to turn around so they wouldn't see me laughing, but when i composed myself, i looked at him and said, "no, your mom gave you that money. she just gave it to your teacher to hold for you, remember?"

he looked at me like i had just ruined his little secret and said, "oh yeah."

sheesh. like teachers have money to give away...
