Teenage logic

Last night my daughter asked me to sign off her online school diary: a daily record of the homework she has been set, feedback from teachers, extracurricular pursuits, etc.

All good until I came across an entry for Tuesday lunchtime: 30 mins detention for throwing dough at another girl during food tech lesson 🤦‍♀

Me: "Why did you throw dough at Heidi?"

Daughter: "Because it sticks to clothes better than biscuit mixture." 🍞 👚 🍪

To which I literally had no answer 🤷‍♀

There's a lesson there... Ask the right question 🤣

@Convivial Absolutely. I instinctively thought that's a reasonable answer, and by the time I remembered I was meant to show parental disappointment she'd scarpered!

@SunshineGirl i think it's time to reflect that maybe, just maybe, she's smarter 😜
