To think the teacher should know my sons name by now

Son was chatting in class fair dues so at the end of the lesson son walks out of class teacher runs down the corridor shouting ken ken get back here now son ignores teacher she shouting ken get back here

My sons name is not ken

So ken comes running out the loo sorry miss she looks confused the continues after my son and asks him why he didn't answer

Well he's not ken for a start

The thing that pissed me off is she phoned to tell me what happened well what dose she want his name is not ken so why would she be expecting a reply and he got a 15 minute detention I suspect by then its was more to do with her feeling like a fool thank the talking

OMG I'm trying to get my son to sleep and y'all are killing me!

I have a cousin called Ken. He has 2 eyes. And is a psychiatrist.

DS's 1st middle name is Philip.

And a child at our school had one eye. He was Kevin though. No idea if anybody ever mistakenly called him Ken.

My Grandad was Everard

JamieComeHome · 08/12/2011 20:40

Everard. That's a name to conjure with. Bet he never set the ceiling alight with a Christmas pudding.

Why on earth should she particularly remember Ken's name because he only has one eye. Dd2 only has one hand which is much more obvious and I frequently call her by her sister's, or even her brother's name. heck some of the children at school used to get her and bf's names mixed up.

My DH's grandad was called Blaise. And he accidentally dropped a bomb on East Anglia.

ShowOfHands · 08/12/2011 20:43

Nah. And he never used his bathroom after Tom Parker committed suicide in it in 1948. He moved out in 1982. He washed outside in a bucket. I never asked where he went to the toilet.
