Education Funny: Important Concepts Taught To Us By Mother

EdConnections Posted by Dan S. Martin
I am trying to keep it a little lighter here heading towards Santa's visit and the more care free final days of the year.  Rest assured, though, substantive stuff will still be part of the daily fare! 
Check back regularly!


For now, some concept-based teaching most all of us can relate to:

Important Concepts Taught To Us By Mother

RELIGION

"You better pray that will come out of the carpet."

TIME TRAVEL

"If you don't straighten up, I'm going to knock you into next week!"

LOGIC

"Because I said so, that's why."

FORESIGHT

"Make sure you wear clean underwear, in case you're in an accident."

IRONY

"Keep laughing and I'll *give* you something to CRY ABOUT!"

OSMOSIS

"Shut your mouth and eat your supper!"

STAMINA

"You'll sit there 'til those lima beans are gone!"

HYPOCRISY

"If I've told you once, I've told you a million times - don't exaggerate!!!"

CIRCLE OF LIFE

"I brought you into this world, and I can take you out."

BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION

"Stop acting like your father!"

ENVY

"There are millions of less fortunate children in this world who don't have wonderful parents like you do!"


Let me know if you have any idea who I can credit for this.  It was sent to me some time ago without credit info.
