See if you can follow this connection-My best friend's daughter's half sister's mother told her (the half sister) she can't go to college for a year after she graduates high school because she needs to spend a year taking care of her horses. We both were like, what??

Would that be the same as your best friend's step-daughter's mother?

Actually, my best friend had a daughter with her ex-husband. Her ex had a daughter with his second wife-so she has no real connection to the girl. Her daughter, however, is the girl's half-sister.

Basically, her daughter was complaining about what an idiot she thought her step-mother was and my friend agreed and decided to share with me. We both had a

over that story.

Student: "All people who make under $40,000 are on welfare and are bad for society"

Me: "Student, who told you that?"

Student: "My Dad, and he is always right!"

(A real conversation I had with one of my 9th graders......Apparently I live on welfare and I am a detriment to society....I couldn't stop laughing afterward...)

Yep...I think the median income is around 44,000.....

Disclaimer: I teach private school, so I tend to get a few more of these comments than I did when I taught public school.
