Some days, kids say the darndest things. And it can really surprise you.
Tis the season for parent-teacher conferences. Who likes them anyway? The kids wonder the secrets that are going to be shared.

We went to my youngest’s teacher conference and all was good. Nothing earth shattering. We talked about the up and coming move.
So we get home and it’s time for homework. I’m helping him study for a test. The focus is using vocabulary words in a “standard” sentence.
We’re studying. And I read this sentence that has the word IT. There’s something missing. It doesn’t make sense.
Long story short, he tells me that IT is not just the word; it is the movie title.
OOOHHHH!!!!!
But then I asked if he has watched IT. “Oh no Mom! But I have seen a few clips on YouTube. Plus we talked about it in class.”
His teacher asked if he was scared to watch it. And he said, “No, because if you use your logic, you know a clown can’t do that.”
“You have to use your logic to know it’s not true!”
His teacher was impressed how he could understand how not to be fearful.
The coach in me asked him if he understood what he was doing.
He took his knowledge to discount his fear. And when you discount your fear, you minimize it. Therefore, you can move forward. You can look past it.
Kids say the darndest things.
