WEBVTT - Josiah's Homework Assignment

0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Ojo on the morning show, keV, I want to get

0:00:03.800 --> 0:00:05.640
<v Speaker 1>into your topic. I was a little late with this.

0:00:05.680 --> 0:00:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I know there's parents that are driving kids to school

0:00:08.200 --> 0:00:13.560
<v Speaker 1>probably still. But Josiah's homework assignment. First off, Josiah's your

0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>place right now, are back with my He's at school

0:00:15.640 --> 0:00:17.360
<v Speaker 1>right now. He's also come up today once he gets

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:19.799
<v Speaker 1>off though. Okay, what's the homework assigny?

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:23.120
<v Speaker 2>So Josiah has a book that the entire class has

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:25.960
<v Speaker 2>been reading. I think it's something with a girl named Malayle,

0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 2>and it is an autobiography of a young woman who

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:31.920
<v Speaker 2>I believe was from South Asia and she grew up

0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:35.920
<v Speaker 2>in a time where women didn't necessarily get education, Like

0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:39.280
<v Speaker 2>they weren't going to school. It wasn't something that was

0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:41.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to say legal at that time, but

0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:43.400
<v Speaker 2>something like that. And she grew up and she fought

0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 2>for women's rights, she fought for girls to be in

0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:46.920
<v Speaker 2>the classroom. And it's an amazing story. Do you know

0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:49.040
<v Speaker 2>all this stuff because he's been telling you exactly. Yes,

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm not reading the book, but I'm engaged in what

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 2>he's doing. In want understanding, and he wanted me to

0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:56.840
<v Speaker 2>review his homework. So the homework assignment is these boxes,

0:00:57.080 --> 0:00:59.440
<v Speaker 2>like seven or eight boxes where you have to discuss

0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:04.000
<v Speaker 2>characteristics of Malayle and what defines her based on these characteristics.

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:05.840
<v Speaker 2>And Josiah is doing all of this stuff. I'm like,

0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 2>I get it. This is really cool. And then the

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.399
<v Speaker 2>other side of the homework, the teacher asks for Josiah.

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:15.319
<v Speaker 2>She asks for Josiah to then list his characteristics and

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:18.160
<v Speaker 2>what makes him who he is. And his first thing

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:20.960
<v Speaker 2>is like, I'm a creative individual. He lists all these things.

0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:23.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm an artist, list all these things, and at the

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:26.959
<v Speaker 2>bottom he says, and I'm a son. And then in

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 2>his box he's like, you know, I'm a son and

0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:32.080
<v Speaker 2>I was had the blessing of being birth to a

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 2>wonderful family. He's like, I have a home, I have food,

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:39.199
<v Speaker 2>I have water. Thank god, I wasn't aborted.

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:52.640
<v Speaker 3>To write that. I'm not gonna tell him to take

0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 3>it out. It's truth.

0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 4>Did this, But did you say why did you include

0:01:57.240 --> 0:01:57.800
<v Speaker 4>that party?

0:01:57.840 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Because he's thankful, I'm telling you.

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:03.480
<v Speaker 2>He lists a bunch of impressive things, and I was like,

0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:04.240
<v Speaker 2>I get it.

0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Can I get it? Did he turn that in today?

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Then to the teacher, Oh gosh, he said, you know

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:12.320
<v Speaker 1>what he needs to do. Then he needs to wear

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 1>He needs to wear the shirt that says thank God,

0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:15.840
<v Speaker 1>my mom didn't swallow me.

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:22.400
<v Speaker 3>You gotta get that shirt. Christ I'm gonna get.

0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:27.799
<v Speaker 1>One school religious Just wait, what was this shirt?

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't a shirt. What was the thing that Smith

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 3>wore the school was? It was the socks?

0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 4>One said little and the other said effort.

0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you think what are the odds that the teacher

0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:40.960
<v Speaker 1>dresses that or just leaves it, just leave it?

0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:43.520
<v Speaker 2>I think it's I think it's amazing. Yeah, I think

0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:47.359
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing. He's like, man, it's insane that I'm someone's kid,

0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 2>not including God. That's for another time. My parents had me.

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:52.720
<v Speaker 2>My mother went through all that pain just for me

0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 2>to exist. I'm a son that has received love, food, water, clothes,

0:02:56.480 --> 0:02:58.919
<v Speaker 2>and a home, not just a physical home, but welcoming

0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 2>me into the home of our family, and for not

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 2>aboarding me.

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:07.760
<v Speaker 3>That's aware. But can I say, can I say and

0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 3>this is this is interesting?

0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's awesome because I really do. First off,

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>I do think that as a kid, you probably Josiah

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:20.960
<v Speaker 1>has always been way older than he he is age wise,

0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.560
<v Speaker 1>number wise, He's always he's very smart kid. But I

0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>think that's such a wonderful thing that he's that, you know,

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 1>gracious that he's got these great parents and he's got

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 1>a great life.

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.560
<v Speaker 2>I could only imagine the things that teachers have to read,

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.840
<v Speaker 2>but that teachers have to deal with, because I kids

0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 2>write crazy things on assignments, even if it goes beyond

0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:40.920
<v Speaker 2>what the assignment is asking for. I wish I could

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:42.880
<v Speaker 2>see that teacher's face when she reads it. Eight four

0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Have a great day at school, Buddy, make your teacher blush.

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Go tell her to why we all get like uncomfortable?

0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>But you're a kid saying it. I mean you reading

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Josiah's words, you know, didn't make me as uncomfortable as hear.

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's funny with teachers. The teachers always deal

0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 1>with I always feel the truth because uh, kids always

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.080
<v Speaker 1>speak the truth, you know what I mean, Like they say,

0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>they from the mouths of babes, they say. And I

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:33.160
<v Speaker 1>know that there are kids that go to school and

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:35.280
<v Speaker 1>they probably know way too much about what their parents

0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:36.480
<v Speaker 1>are going through or things that there.

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 3>You know, moms are having to deal with whatever.

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:41.600
<v Speaker 4>Twe too, honest.

0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:45.480
<v Speaker 1>But can I tell you that that's the beauty of teachers,

0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>is that you get to be the person that has

0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 1>to dissect that and then try to digest it what's

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 1>going on?

0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 5>LEXI here, if you could be so proud of yourself

0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:00.360
<v Speaker 5>that Josiah is so proud of how you guys, I'm

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:01.800
<v Speaker 5>just thought of how you raised them for him to

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:04.279
<v Speaker 5>be so self aware and thankful for that, because the

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 5>only thing my kid had me.

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 9>Questioned and he brought an assignment home was it said

0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 9>like something like, what was the worst part of your week?

0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 9>And it literally says waking up to come to school

0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:17.680
<v Speaker 9>and your week he said, coming home to play video

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.360
<v Speaker 9>games and go to sleep. But what are you doing Dallas?

0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:22.360
<v Speaker 9>He was like, little I don't want to hear all

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:23.840
<v Speaker 9>you guys. Yeah, because he has sisters, He's like, I

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:25.600
<v Speaker 9>want to hear the girls yell at the worst part.

0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:27.240
<v Speaker 9>I'm like, I'm so sorry about that.

0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.640
<v Speaker 4>I feel your pain. Smith brought home a paper last

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 4>week and he was supposed to write a short story

0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 4>about his favorite time of day at school, like the

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.520
<v Speaker 4>favorite thing that he did at school, write a story,

0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 4>draw picture. keV saw this, he literally just wrote the

0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:43.280
<v Speaker 4>word dismissal and that was it.

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:47.080
<v Speaker 3>That was so embarrassed Jackie, what's up?

0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 8>True?

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:48.960
<v Speaker 6>Hi?

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:52.560
<v Speaker 7>So I this was a few years ago. My son

0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 7>is now twelve. So right about this time that he

0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.719
<v Speaker 7>was four, we were watching The Fox and the Hound,

0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:05.800
<v Speaker 7>the lit old nineties. Yeah, he very randomly one day

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.119
<v Speaker 7>was like, Mom, I'm so glad that you never left

0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:12.560
<v Speaker 7>me in the woods, and that I'll never leave you

0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:16.119
<v Speaker 7>in the woods that scene where the old woman left

0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 7>pods the fox in the woods by it.

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:22.679
<v Speaker 9>But that was really cute.

0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:24.560
<v Speaker 3>No, that is cute. That is really good.

0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:27.800
<v Speaker 1>By the way, just tell all your kids, and this

0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 1>is for Smith and Josiah and all those guys, that

0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>at the end of school, you know how all the

0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.360
<v Speaker 1>kids get to they we would get those certificates like

0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:36.320
<v Speaker 1>it was basically they had like it looked like a

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 1>thing that you could frame and hang it up in school,

0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:42.160
<v Speaker 1>and every kid got one. Every kid got one in

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:46.440
<v Speaker 1>school for something. Mine was for good lunch room behavior.

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 1>That was that was mine. Every kid got honor Society,

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:55.320
<v Speaker 1>perfect attendance, the physical fitness test.

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:58.120
<v Speaker 3>You couldn't misbehave you are busy, stuff.

0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:02.800
<v Speaker 1>In your face was pretty much my life, right, Monica.

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:07.280
<v Speaker 1>As a funny one for us, Monica, what did your

0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 1>son do?

0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:13.640
<v Speaker 6>Hi? He had to draw a picture of what I

0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:18.280
<v Speaker 6>do every day, and I'm a hairdresser, and apparently he

0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:19.520
<v Speaker 6>thinks sweeping is.

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:19.880
<v Speaker 3>All I do.

0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:22.840
<v Speaker 6>So I was holding a pole and it looked like

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:26.440
<v Speaker 6>it was pretty much money on the floor, but it

0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:31.760
<v Speaker 6>was supposed to be hair, so I looked like a stripper.

0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 6>Pretty much and the question the teacher just put a

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:40.520
<v Speaker 6>question mark in saying what do you do? So it

0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:41.520
<v Speaker 6>was so embarrassing.

0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.199
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, teacher or female.

0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:47.560
<v Speaker 6>It was a female teacher. So I think that's why

0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:49.080
<v Speaker 6>she was comfortable enough to ask me.

0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:53.080
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, you gotta do you gotta frame that

0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:54.560
<v Speaker 1>like that has to be framed.

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.640
<v Speaker 6>Will never forget, never forget that one.
