WHY WE LOVE CHILDREN SO MUCH

1) NUDITY

I was driving with my three young children one warm

summer evening when a woman in the convertible

ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark

naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my

5-year-old shout from the back seat, ‘Mom! That lady

isn’t wearing a seat belt!’

2) OPINIONS

On the first day of school, a first-grader handed his

teacher a note from his mother. The note read, ‘The

opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily

those of his parents.’

3) KETCHUP

A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup out of

the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she

asked her 4-year-old daughter to answer the phone.

‘Mommy can’t come to the phone to talk to you right

now. She’s hitting the bottle.’

4) MORE NUDITY

A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself

in the women’s locker room. When he was spotted,

the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing

towels and running for cover. The little boy watched

in amazement and then asked, ‘What’s the matter,

haven’t you ever seen a little boy before?’

5) POLICE # 1

While taking a routine vandalism report at an

elementary school, I was interrupted by a little

girl about 6 years old. Looking up and down at

my uniform, she asked, ‘Are you a cop?’

‘Yes,’ I answered and contin ued writing the report.

‘My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask

the police. Is that right?’ ‘Yes, that’s right,’ I told her.

‘Well, then,’ she said as she extended her foot toward

me, ‘would you please tie my shoe?’

6) POLICE # 2

It was the end of the day when I parked my police van

in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my

K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy

staring in at me ‘Is that a dog you got back there?’ he

asked. ‘It sure is,’ I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked

at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he

said, ‘What’d he do?’

7) ELDERLY

While working for an organization that delivers lunches

to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, ‘The tooth fairy will never believe this!’

8) DRESS-UP

A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party.

When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned,

‘Daddy, you shouldn’t wear that suit.’ ‘And why not,

darling?’ ‘You know that it always gives you a headache the next morning.’

9) DEATH

While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church,

our minister heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly

made his collar wilt. Apparently, his 5-year-old son and

his playmates had found a dead robin. Feelingthat proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small box and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal of the deceased. The minister’s son was chosen to say the appropriate prayers and with sonorous dignity intoned his version of what he thought his father always said:

‘Glory be unto the Faaather, and unto the Sonnn, and into the hole he goooes.’

10) SCHOOL

A little girl had just finished her first week of school.

‘I’m just wasting my time,’ she said to her mother.

‘I can’t read, I can’t write and they won’t let me talk!’

11) BIBLE

A little boy opened the big family bible. He was

fascinated as he fingered through the old pages.

Suddenly, something fell out of the Bible. He picked

up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an

old leaf that had been pressed in between the pages.

‘Mama, look what I found,’ the boy called out.

‘What have you got there, dear?’ With astonishment in

the young boy’s voice, he answered, ‘I think it’s Adam’s

underwear.
