A teacher noticed that a little boy at the back of the class, was squirming around, scratching his crotch and not paying attention.
She went back to find out what was going on. He was quite embarrassed and whispered that he had just recently been circumcised and he was quite itchy.
The teacher told him to go down to the principal’s office; he was to phone his mother and ask her what he should do about it.
He did, and returned to his class. Suddenly, there was a commotion at the back of the room.
She went back to investigate only to find him sitting at his desk with his penis hanging out.
“I thought I told you to call your Mom,” she screamed. “I did,” he said, “and she told me that if I could stick it out till noon, she’d come and pick me up from school.”
A teacher noticed a little boy at the back of the class who was squirming around and scratching his crotch, clearly not paying attention. Concerned, she went to check on him and discovered that he had recently been circumcised and was feeling quite itchy.
Wanting to help the boy but unsure of what to do, the teacher advised him to go down to the principal’s office and call his mother for guidance. The boy followed her instructions and returned to the class. However, the situation took a surprising turn when a commotion erupted at the back of the room.
Upon investigation, the teacher found the boy sitting at his desk with his penis exposed. Shocked, she asked him why he hadn’t called his mother as she had instructed. In response, the boy calmly explained that he had indeed called his mother and she had told him to wait until noon, promising to pick him up from school then.
The teacher couldn’t believe what she was hearing. The boy’s innocent misunderstanding of his mother’s words had led to a rather embarrassing situation in the classroom. Despite the awkwardness of the moment, the teacher couldn’t help but chuckle at the boy’s unintentional act of taking his mother’s words quite literally.
This humorous incident served as a reminder that children often interpret things in their own unique way, sometimes leading to unexpected and comical outcomes. It also highlighted the importance of clear communication, especially when dealing with sensitive or unfamiliar topics.
In the end, the teacher made sure the situation was handled appropriately, and the boy was picked up by his mother at noon as promised. This lighthearted anecdote brought a smile to everyone’s face and served as a memorable lesson for both the teacher and the students in the classroom.
