RETARDED GRANDPARENTS

(this was actually reported by a teacher)

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
Florida .

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

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

There is a swimming pool too, but all they do there is jump up and down 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. They 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.
