I overheard

I was blown away...some middle school kids were sitting talking. One says "Who lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave?" I am thinking are you kidding everyone knows that. To my shock they didn't....My mouth opens. They inform me it is a joke that was told to them by a teacher.
What a joke.
This is a joke. Reminds me of late night tv. When they talk show host goes out on the street and ask who is the Vice president.

And 1 or none and get it right.

How can our children not know Who lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave?

I think it's kind of sad that the teacher was making that joke. She/He should be the one teaching them that, not joking about what they don't konw.
sad.
