You gotta love 'em!
My daughter is 14 and her teacher asked her a maths question in class today:
Teacher: If you had 10 chocolate cakes and a friend asked for 2, how many would you have left?
Daughter: 10.
Teacher: Ok, let's say you had 10 chocolate cakes and a friend forcibly took 2 of them, what would have left?
Daughter: 10... and a dead body.

When my youngest daughter was about 7, she said to me, "Mum? How long would you say my bum-crack is?"
I said I had no idea and why did she want to know. She replied, "My maths homework is to estimate the length of something." 
... so a book or a pencil wasn't the first thing she thought of then.

it is funny but if my child was being taught basic maths like that at 14 I would be worried and speaking to the school! My 7 year olds maths homework is way past that stage |

When i was talking to my daughter about going to the zoo and going to see some Lions i asked her what sound they make she went 'MEOWWWWWW' (really loudly and like a child would roar)
i said 'not quite, the go ROARRR'
she then comes back at me with 'but mummy you said a lion was just a big cat'
one seriously proud mum.. she was 2 and a half at the time |

When mine learned to talk I started a book of funny things they said. I still put things in it now. It makes me laugh when I look back at it.  |

Did you really say 'fuck off' in front of a 6 year old? |

In a crisp poke on the A814 |
Have to say I would not be impressed if my daughter had said something like that at that age to a teacher...
And as has already been pointed out....
Is that really the maths she is being taught at 14yrs old????  |

For god's sake, it was a joke. No she isn't being taught maths at that level at 14 but the quip was made as part of a wider conversation in the group. Why do people have to take things so literally.  |

m nephew(11) commenting on a relationship said to me, "theres a 40% chance of that relationship working", I asked why and he said, "just on the age difference alone!"
I dunno where the 40% came from anyway |
