I ask my usual question: How was school today?
Gertrude:
xxxx swore today. Loud.
Me: What
else happened? Tell me something good that happened.
Gertrude:
It was a long swear word. And he said it out loud. Everybody heard it.
Mer: How
did you know he swore?
Gertrude:
He swore. Everybody knew.
Me: How do
you know what a swear word is. How do you know what word not to say?
Gertrude:
I’ve heard it all before. I know the naughty words.
Me: Where
have you heard this word before?
Gertrude:
Mum.
Me: So your
mum was educating you.
Gertrude:
That’s right. And I’ve heard you say it too.
Me: I was
just educating you. Telling you what word not to say.
Gertrude: It was the long word.
Me: What
was the first letter in this word.
Gertrude: R
Me: I don’t
know what word that is. I don’t think it is a naughty word. I think you can say
it.
Gertrude:
Arsehole.
Me: I want
to go back in time five minutes. Answer my question. How was school today? Tell me something good
that happened today.
