This is What She’s Learning in School?
Posted by Dr. Cason on Thursday, October 23rd, 2008
She dances around. Twirling her hair and laughing.
I smile and watch her. I love to see how she is growing up. My big little first grader.
Then she starts singing rather coyly…
“Don’t you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?”
I’m seriously considering homeschooling.

Sara Rosson 23 Oct 2008 at 9:38 am 2Part of me thinks this is cute and the other part of me is terrified. What we have to look forward to as my two get older.
If she only knew what she was singing about!
Talenaon 23 Oct 2008 at 10:59 am 3WOW..thank you public schooling. Wonder who, where and when she learned that. Things they are even learning in PreK are terrifing me. Yes part of me thinks its cute, but the other part of me is scared as to where the young children in this generation are headed. I did homeschool the boys and it was rough, but they are turning out just fine. Take care and hang in there.
Kylaon 23 Oct 2008 at 12:30 pm 4Oh no! Allllll the things they learn at school, outside of the curriculum. It starts so early!
Grandyon 23 Oct 2008 at 3:44 pm 5Just so long as she’s not singing, “I kissed a girl…and I liked it.”
Oh I get your fear.

tiffon 23 Oct 2008 at 6:21 pm 6LOLOLOL! Gorgeous girl!
My three year olds sing I kissed a girl. It goes with the territory of having teens and toddlers.

Dr. Casonon 23 Oct 2008 at 9:07 pm 7LOL-
All right now I was just kidding about the home schooling!
Alesiaon 24 Oct 2008 at 12:34 am 8Yeah, I had the same impulse when my 4 year old daughter started telling me to “shake it like a rock star, mama!”.
Lisaon 24 Oct 2008 at 1:40 am 9Too bad we can’t wrap them up in bubble wrap and keep them home until they are grown up. Just wait until you have to explain sex to your twelve year old.
Jadenon 24 Oct 2008 at 4:17 am 10hahahaha, I think it’s cute!
Better get used to it, someday she’ll be saying it and MEANING it
At least now it’s just innocent. lol.

Dr. Casonon 24 Oct 2008 at 8:46 pm 11Ha Ha! Twelve!!!!!!!! You need to start now and have them understanding it all by the time they are 8. Sound young?? Who would you rather have tell them? The punk at the back of the bus or you?
kcinnovaon 25 Oct 2008 at 5:35 am 12Next time my oldest complains that he doesn’t know the current music because I don’t play it, I’ll ask him if he’d rather I sang along tunes like THAT in the car.

Kathleenon 25 Oct 2008 at 10:14 am 13Everyone should live in Memphis and hear the loud rap music being played on the street and in the drive-thru lines. The words, OMG, are unbelievable. And the mothers and fathers just sit there with it playing and their young children in the car listening and singing to it. And we wonder where there pick these things up. It may not have been at school – could have been listening to car radios on her way to school on the bus.
I have come SO CLOSE to getting out of my car, telling them to turn the music down, and telling them I did not want my children hearing this when my two boys were young!
Angelaon 25 Oct 2008 at 11:19 am 14Too much!
I bet that was a surprise.

White Hot Magikon 25 Oct 2008 at 11:14 pm 15Yeah, they learn too much too early don’t they. That is why I am still slightly freaked about letting my kindergartener ride the bus.
Elizabethon 26 Oct 2008 at 3:53 am 16I would have died. This is one of the reasons why we don’t watch traditional tv (we stick to movies). My girls dialed in a radio this morning while they had a couple of friends over and I listened carefully to what would be playing on this station. I had it turned off and unplugged when Brittany Spear’s Womanizer came on. That’s not exactly what I want my 7 & 8 year old daughters singing along with.
