Wisdom and the reality of Retarded Grandparents?

-Priceless wisdom from the innocent on growing old

* RETARDED GRANDPARENTS

Written by a third grader, on what his grandparents do.

After Christmas, a teacher asked her young pupils how they spent their
holiday away from school.
\*

*One child wrote the following:

We always used to spend the holidays with Grandma and Grandpa. They
used to live in a big brick house, but Grandpa got retarded and they moved
to **Arizona** . *

* Now they live in a tin box and have rocks painted green to look like
grass. They ride around on their bicycles, and wear name tags, because they
don't know who they are anymore.*

* They go to a building called a wreck center, but they must have got it
fixed because it is all okay now, they do exercises there, but they don't do
them very well. *

*There is a swimming pool too, but they all jump up and down in it with hats
on. At their gate, there is a doll house with a little old man sitting in
it. He watches all day so nobody can escape. Sometimes they sneak out, and
go cruising in their golf carts. Nobody there cooks, they just eat out.
And, they eat the same thing every night - early birds. *

*Some of the people can't get out past the man in the doll house. The ones
who do get out, bring food back to the wrecked center for pot luck.*

* My Grandma says that Grandpa worked all his life to earn his retardment
and, says I should work hard so I can be retarded someday too. *

*When I earn my retardment, I want to be the man in the doll house. Then I
will let people out, so they can visit their grandchildren.
