My son is quite the reader and he was thrilled when he received this book as a gift from his aunt. You see, it has really cool boy stuff in it like how to build a fort, how to build a paper airplane, you know, all of the important things a boy should know.
Well, apparently there is also a section on "How To Talk To Girls" AND Jake read it!!!! So, without telling me a thing, he went off to school and at recess marched right up to a 3rd grader!!!! (Jake is only in 2nd grade) He proceeded to tell her a joke and then was about to let her talk about herself (just like it says in the book) and you know what she did?!!!! She slapped him!!!!!!!!!
After he told me about what happened (and me wanting her name, soc number and address to kick her butt!!!) I had to explain to him that he did the right thing and that she just wasn't a very nice girl. I mean I couldn't let his confidence be more hurt than it already was.
I guess I better read the rest of the book to find out what other things he may be attempting do!!!
