kids are people too!

I enter the class and greet the children, "Good afternoon!"

They respond, "BAD!"

"Hey, hey, did I ask you how you are? no. I simply greeted you. Now, how are you?"

All in chorus, "BAD!" One sweet, oddly shaped little girl raises her hand, "how do you say 'stressed'?" I tell her and she seems amused.

I quickly change the subject, "Well then, what are the plans for the weekend? Anyone going skiing?"

She raises her hand again, "How do you say 'suicide'?"

This, from an 11 year old.

I wouldn't take it personally! Do you think it has something to do with her odd shape...?
