I Can't Believe I'm Not Insane Yet
So how's this for utter stupidity:
Bestie's son has severe dyslexia and pronunciation issues. Very smart kid but reading issues, that's all. He's in geography class yesterday and he pronounces Nigeria as niggeria.
His parents are strict with media and home rules so he's never even heard the word nigger and was crazy confused over why he's in trouble at all because the teacher and principal won't explain.
So bestie had to leave work, drive back over the mountain passes, 32 miles because the principal refuses to say what happened, just that the poor kid is getting suspended.
Yep, suspended... for saying a word by accident because he mispronounced and doesn't understand long versus short letter sounds. AND yesterday was last Friday before spring break. So he's suspended... during spring break.
What?
Of course he isn't in trouble because he honestly is clueless and wasn't given an actual explanation by his elders so yeah. Just such a stupid situation.
