A kid's perspective

Heard on the Playground this week...

"And he put a hook in my mouth, a real hook, and scraped the dirt off my teeth"  6 year old describing his trip to the dentist to his friend.

"Yard Duty, she won't accept my proposal, I gave her a ring"  
The 4th and 5th graders are playing a game.  
I ask her why she proposed to her friend. 
"Because I love her!"
Her friend is a girl.
They are laughing and being silly.  A boy looks at me, he rolls his eyes.
I cry inside-- I do not think it is funny-- the world has changed.
