kitchen table math, the sequel: also playing in a parallel universe

also playing in a parallel universe

I had no idea how many "health" brochures the kids had been given, and didn't find out 'til I went upstairs to watch a George Lopez show on the subject of parents of SPED kids railing at their school boards (really!)

Here, from "If You Are a Man...STD?"

Know the Signs

For a man, these are warning signs of STD:
  • Need to urinate (pee)
  • Burning and pain when you urinate
  • Drip or discharge from the penis
  • Discharge could be white and watery or yellowish and thick
  • Sores, bumps or blisters near or on penis, testicles or mouth.”

C. has yet to go out on his first date.

And now, thanks to Principal Joe Witazek, formerly of Albany School 18, he has, in his mind's eye, images of dripping, discharging penises to associate with sexual relations and first love.

Thanks, Principal.
