Show and Tell

This happened a while ago but I thought I’d share anyway! At the summer camp I work at we have show and tell occasionally, usually whenever the kids bring stuff. On one such occasion a little boy said he had something cool to show everyone, and eagerly awaited the arrival of show and tell time. When the time arrived we sat the kids down and he went to grab his surprise. He come back with what looks to be a piece of skin in a plastic bag. Disgusted, we ask what it is and he tells us it’s the skin from his dad’s blister that popped.
Who, in their right mind, allows their child to bring their skin to show and tell? Sure son, let me just get a Baggie for that.

Summer Camp

So I work at a summer camp and one of the kids has severe ADHD and is violent. Fantastic, right? Well there’s been a few instances of him hitting younger kids (he’s in 4th grade) and we wrote a formal letter to the parents stating that if it happened again he would be removed from camp. So the other day he gets hit in the head with a ball while playing dodgeball and pushes and scratches the 4 year old that did it. It draws blood so we call the parents and wrote up another letter telling them he can’t come back. Easy. Except it isn’t. The dad calls up and tries to accuse us of singling his kid out because he’s black. What has this world come to?
