It’s said that we learn something every day.
Well…today, one of the players in my tennis class mentioned that young children these days have dependency issues.
Some arrive in class with their parents and the mom or dad is carrying the kid’s backpack and others have not been taught how to zip up a jacket.
Most alarming seems to be the frequency of accidents where the use of diapers might be the short term solution.
As the story is told, the school has a CODE BROWN in effect when a #2 ends up in the trousers instead of where it belongs,
I assume when it is announced over the intercom that it means every available staff member converges on the scene. The teacher in tennis group says it’s nearly a daily occurrence and still very unsettling for the kids as adults rush into the room.
Some elite schools have partnered with Southwest Airlines for a unique remedy.
When CODE BROWN is called, masks descend from the ceiling immediately and kids have been trained on how to use them while teachers handle the CB alert.
My wife usually proofreads these morsels and said this morning that the word ‘handle’ might not be the best choice.
I just know that, if a CODE BROWN is called at a Nuggets game, I’ll undoubtedly be the first to exit the building.
