Little David

Little David:





Little David was in his 5th-grade class in a school in Washington, D.C.,
when the teacher asked the children what their parents did for a living.

All the typical answers came up – fireman, nurse, secretary, sales,
police, court clerk, etc.

David was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him
directly.

"My father's an exotic dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his
clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer's really good, he'll
make love for money."

The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other
children to work on some class work, and took Little David aside to ask
him, "Is that really true about your father?"

"No," said David, "He works for the Bush administration, but I was too
embarrassed to say that in front of the other kids."
