during a discussion about a poem on a civil war...
student: Mrs. To, why do people fight if they don't want to?
me: Sometimes, they have no choice... Like during WWII, if you were of a certain age and were healthy, you were DRAFTED into the war.
student: Were you drafted in WWII?
me: WWII??? ..... no, I didn't fight in WWII. ...I stayed back and took care of the wounded soldiers in the hospitals.
Did you seriously say this? They think you were alive in the 40's?!?!
ReplyDeletehahahaha --- WOW! That is hilarious! :)It reminds me of something I would read in a Reader's Digest magazine...
ReplyDeleteYes, I said this. And I don't think they know when WWII happened...
