Today, I got a call from my son's second grade teacher. He happens to write and throw with both hands, and wanted to share this during show and tell. Apparently, he didn't know the word for this is ambidextrous, because his teacher told me, "Your son just told the whole class that he's bisexual!" FML

Today, I went to my 7 year old son's school for a conference with his teacher. When I got there, the teacher said "she adored me for who and what I am". I was puzzled. Turns out my son told his class that I am a "lesbian American." Wrong. I'm Lebanese-American. FML

Today, my son decided to come out of the closet by wearing a shirt that said "Mom, I'm gay" to the family reunion. FML

Today, I found out why my 5 year-old son's teacher acts so awkward around me. My son told everyone in his class that I work as a stripper. I'm not a stripper, I work at the strip mall. FML

Today, I found out that my son is not really gay. He just told me that so I'd let him have girls in his bedroom. FML

Today, I found out that my son has been telling me he's gay so we would allow the "female friend" who is actually his girlfriend to stay over. FML

Today, I got a note from my son's kindergarten teacher. During free time yesterday, he told her, "Mommy was stripping". I was indeed stripping. Paint that is. FML

Today, I got a call from my 8-year-old's 3rd grade teacher. Apparently a question went around class asking, "Why do you think you were put on this Earth?", and my son answered, "My dad says it's because I swam the fastest." FML

Ha, I'm sure they have no idea what that means. But hey, there isn't really anything wrong with being bisexual.

Haha, I am too, but I told everyone I was an air conditioner instead of ambidextrous when I was young

Hahaha! Poor kid, he just didn't know what the right word was, and he sure as heck didn't know what bisexual really meant. He had the right idea though, smart of him to figure that out.

All the reactions to this are disgusting. 1. The fact that the teacher called home like he was swearing in class. Referances to sexual orientation aren't "bad" words. 2. "How did he hear the word?" Kids know mommies and daddies love each other. What the hell is the difference? Funny, yes. Innapropriate, not so much.

Thank you! My first thought was "why the hell is the teacher calling home about this?" Would they do that if the kid announced that he was straight? Or that he likes girls? But his classmates won't forget about that anytime soon. He'll be hearing about this for years to come.

Well, she probably just wanted to make sure the parents got the kid using the right word.

Well the teacher probably knew that he was misusing it because he probably showed the class how was ambidextrous. So she called to let his mom know that he was misusing the word. But if he was ligit coming out I agree. The teacher would not have to call the parents. It's like a kid saying "I'm straight" or "I have a girlfriend".
