The Primamry Talk

Parent: Come and lets get your primary talk ready

Child 1 (age 7): OK

Parent: Just a moment... (Copy, paste, rename and open the word file for brother's talk from last week....) Let's start writing...

Child 1: Brother's talk?!?! (looking on computer monitor)

Parent: This is your talk, I am just "referencing" the one I wrote last week....

Child 3 (age 4): I don't want you to use my talk

Parent: Don't worry, we are going to make a talk for your sister

Child 3: You are going to use my talk

Parent: We are not going to just use your talk. It is just that both of you had the same subject. Sister and I are going to write her talk

Child 1: (starts reading first paragraph of "reference" talk)

Child 3: (yelling) That IS my talk!!!! I TOLD YOU DON'T USE IT!!!!!

Parent: The first part is the same, but the middle and end part are not the same...

Child 3: I can't believe you are using my talk!

Child 3: That was my talk! You are using my talk! That was MY talk!
