I knew that when I had my son he would eventually grow up and have to go to school. what i didn't know was that by the time he got to fifth grade he would be learning more then his ABC' and 123's.
I am not talking Algebra and science here either I'm talking about jokes that are funny but rather rude. See last week he came home singing a little tune that went something like this.
i am the ice cream man
I drive an ice van
when i ring my bell
all the fat kids run like hell.
now i know you are laughing and i was to but seriously not very polite right. anyways fast forward to yesterday. i pick little man up from school and he is rather hyper. so wondering why he is so active i ask this was our conversation.
me: " why are you so hyper today?"
son: "because I beez sniffing powder sugar"
me: "you did WHAT!!"
son: "I beez sniffing powder sugar and it melled likzz bubble gum"
me: "I am so sending you to private school"
yes that's right folks apparently my son not only is learning songs about ice cream men but he is sniffing powder sugar and people wonder why i panic at the thought of my child being in school. To think he still has seven years of school left the question is will my sanity survive.
winner winner chicken dinner that's right my friends anyone wanting to win some really cool stuff go visit Mamarazzi over at
Dandelion wishes she is always giving away cool stuff.

They sure learn more than ABC . . .!
Wait till he comes home and asks "Did daddy give me to you?" "YES!" "How?"
bah gawd!
i was a nail in the foot to my parents!
Oh that sounds like it would hurt!
The powered sugar raises eyebrows, but the foul songs are pretty normal. I can still recite many of my old school songs from memory.
I also think that's nothing to worry about too much. have a wonderful day full of sunshine Becca ;)
As long as you keep doing what you are doing (talkig to him and keeping those lines of communication going) he'll know what is acceptable and not. You are doing a great job Becca! Blessings, Joanne
I know...just the other day I was talking to my niece who is in third grade, she was telling me about her homework(math) I had to just smile and shake my head, pretending I knew what she was talking about...OMG, I had no clue????
Powdered sugar is a gateway drug.
Powdered sugar! I'd never imagined that, that's dangerous, they could mix anything with that. On the other hand is nice that you have good communication with your son. Keep him informed, keep him safe.
@David allen waters i know some days i wonder how i ever grduated
@Joanne thank you i'm trying
@Nick thanks and you have a wonderful day as well
@Drake Sigar me too i think we all learn them and lord only knows what he will lern in sixth grade
@BTN Hip Hop haha but you grew up and now your perfect right
@LORDPATRICK that thought isn't helping and when he ask that's when i'm hanging up my mommy hat.
@Mercurio true
Oh dear, and he's only 7. Bless his little cotton socks! The little song was pretty funny though!!
What?!? Powdered sugar? I remember when kids on the school bus would snort pixie sticks and I thought that was insane.
I'm not surprised that your shocked, thankfully its not something I've experienced with the children I work with yet but they are thinking of started sex education and such classes at the age of 4-5!
Oh gosh, I love that little rhyme, but yes a little rude, although you should hear some of the stuff coming from the school, yard down my way. It's so rude, it would make your hair turn blue.
In my opinion private school is way way worse, and you have to pay way more for it.
LLLLLLOOOLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-LBS
Are you kidding? Now they serve lunch and gateway drugs for kids at school. Perfect.
damn, sniffing sugar is bad
Kids repeating naughty phrases and songs seems pretty par for the course. I know I got into plenty of trouble for repeating all the off color things older kids told me to say when I was a child.
The powdered sugar thing does seem like a bit of a worry though. Good on your boy for telling you about it.

This makes me want to home school every kid in the nation.
By the way, I've nominated you for a blog award. Do whatever you want with it. Just know that someone likes what you have to say and how you say it :)

good gravy....Being a parent these days can be fun huh!
I tried not to laugh...really I did.
My daughter's in first grade and is already learning some crazy stuff. I think I should start therapy now to get me through the next 10 years. :)
Damn that was funny about the ice cream man had to laugh as you knew I would...........although I wonder what the powered sugar was my first thought was Wizz Fizz if you don't know what that is it's sherbert aka powder sugar..........
