RETARDED GRANDPARENTS
This is great! (and was actually reported by a teacher).
After Christmas, a teacher asked her young pupils how they spent their
holiday away from school. One child wrote the following:
We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma and Grandpa. They used
To live in a big brick house but Grandpa got retarded and they moved to
Arizona. Now they live in a tin box and have rocks painted green to look
like grass. They ride around on their bicycles and wear nametags because
they don't know who they are anymore. They go to a building called a
wrecked center but they must have got it fixed because it is okay now, and
do exercises there, but they don't do them very well. There is a swimming
pool too, but in it, they all jump up and down with hats on. At their
gate, there is a dollhouse with a little old man sitting in it. He watches
all day so nobody can escape!
Sometimes they sneak out. They go cruising in their golf carts. Nobody
there cooks, they just eat out. And, they eat the same thing every night.
Early Birds. Some of the people can't get out past the man in the
dollhouse. The ones who do get out, bring food back to the wrecked center
and call it pot luck. My Grandma says that Grandpa worked all his life to
earn his retardment and says I should work hard so I can be retarded
some day too. When I earn my retardment, I want to be the man in the
dollhouse. Then I will let people out so they can visit their grandchildren.
