WEBVTT - Josiah's Homework Assignment  

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Ojo on the morning show, keV. I want to get

0:00:03.840 --> 0:00:05.680
<v Speaker 1>into your topic. I was a little late with this.

0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:08.119
<v Speaker 1>I know there's parents that are driving kids to school

0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 1>probably still. But Josiah's homework assignment. First off, Josiah's at

0:00:13.440 --> 0:00:15.360
<v Speaker 1>your place right now. Are back with my He's at

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:17.120
<v Speaker 1>school right now. He's also to come up today once

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:19.840
<v Speaker 1>he gets off though. Okay, what's the homework assigny?

0:00:19.880 --> 0:00:23.160
<v Speaker 2>So Josiah has a book that the entire class has

0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:26.000
<v Speaker 2>been reading. I think it's something with a girl named Malayle,

0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:29.040
<v Speaker 2>and it is an autobiography of a young woman who

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:31.960
<v Speaker 2>I believe was from South Asia and she grew up

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 2>in a time where women didn't necessarily get education, Like

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:39.320
<v Speaker 2>they weren't going to school. It wasn't something that was

0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:41.199
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to say legal at that time, but

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:43.440
<v Speaker 2>something like that. And she grew up and she fought

0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:45.159
<v Speaker 2>for women's rights, she fought for girls to be in

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 2>the classroom.

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:47.159
<v Speaker 3>And it's an amazing story. Do you know all this

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 3>stuff because he's been telling you exactly.

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:51.519
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I'm not reading the book, but I'm engaged in

0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:53.240
<v Speaker 2>what he's doing. In want understanding, and he wanted me

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 2>to review his homework So the homework assignment is these boxes,

0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.480
<v Speaker 2>like seven or eight boxes where you have to discuss

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:04.040
<v Speaker 2>characteristics of Malayle and what defines her based on these characteristics.

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 2>And Josiah is doing all of this stuff. I'm like,

0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:07.679
<v Speaker 2>I get it. This is really cool. And then the

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 2>other side of the homework, the teacher asks for Josiah.

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:15.360
<v Speaker 2>She asks for Josiah to then list his characteristics and

0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 2>what makes him who he is. And his first thing

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:21.000
<v Speaker 2>is like, I'm a creative individual. He lists all these things.

0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm an artist, list all these things, and at the

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 2>bottom he says, and I'm a son. And then in

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 2>his box he's like, you know, I'm a son and

0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 2>I was had the blessing of being birth to a

0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:36.279
<v Speaker 2>wonderful family. He's like, I have a home, I have food,

0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 2>i have water. Thank god, I wasn't aborted.

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 4>Write that.

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:53.919
<v Speaker 3>I'm not gonna tell him to take it out. It's truth.

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 4>Did this, But did you say why did you include

0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 4>that party?

0:01:57.880 --> 0:01:59.920
<v Speaker 3>Because he's thankful I'm selling.

0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 2>He lists a bunch of impressive things, and I was like,

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:04.280
<v Speaker 2>I get it.

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Can I get it? Did he turn that in today?

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Then to the teacher, Oh gosh, he said, you know

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.360
<v Speaker 1>what he needs to do. Then he needs to wear

0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:14.799
<v Speaker 1>He needs to wear the shirt that says thank God

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:15.880
<v Speaker 1>my mom didn't swallow me.

0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:21.720
<v Speaker 3>You gotta get that shirt.

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:26.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get one school religious It's just wait,

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>what was this shirt?

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't a shirt. What was the thing that Smith

0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:32.080
<v Speaker 3>wore the school was? It was the socks?

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:35.799
<v Speaker 4>One said little and the other said effort.

0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Do you think what are the odds that the teacher

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:40.160
<v Speaker 1>dresses that or just leaves it.

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:41.000
<v Speaker 3>Just leave it?

0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I think it's I think it's amazing. Yeah, I think

0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:47.399
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing. He's like, man, it's insane that I'm someone's kid,

0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 2>not including God. That's for another time. My parents had me.

0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 2>My mother went through all that pain just for me

0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:56.520
<v Speaker 2>to exist. I'm a son that has received love, food, water, clothes,

0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:58.960
<v Speaker 2>and a home, not just a physical home, but welcoming

0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 2>me into the home of our family, and for not

0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:07.800
<v Speaker 2>aboarding me. But can I say, can I say, and

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:08.800
<v Speaker 2>this is this is interesting?

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:12.959
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's awesome, because I really do. First off,

0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 1>I do think that as a kid, you probably Josiah

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:21.040
<v Speaker 1>has always been way older than he he is age wise,

0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 1>number wise, he's always he's very smart kid. But I

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>think that's such a wonderful thing that he's that, you know,

0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>gracious that he's got these great parents and he's got

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:29.680
<v Speaker 1>a great life.

0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:30.720
<v Speaker 3>I could only.

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Imagine the things that teachers have to read, but that

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 2>teachers have to deal with, because I kids write crazy

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>things on assignments, even if it goes beyond what the

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 2>assignment is asking for. I wish I could see that

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 2>teacher's face when she reads it. Eight four form O

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 2>Joe Live eight for four six six five six by

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:45.880
<v Speaker 2>four eight.

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 3>What's up? Anna?

0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 5>Hey, what's up?

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 6>It's me and my son Rex.

0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 7>This is his first time a long time.

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 3>What a cool name? Yeah, what's going on? Anna? Until

0:03:58.560 --> 0:03:59.040

<v Speaker 2>Hey?

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 7>So he just wanted to let you know, Hey, baby,

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 7>aren't you really really glad about something? Yeah?

0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh, Rex is a kid, a little kid. What are

0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>you glad about Rex? Glad that you're glad that?

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you can say it, Yes, you can say it.

0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:34.400
<v Speaker 1>That I wasn't afforded, Like, yeah, that is a wonderful thing.

0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:37.040
<v Speaker 3>Me too, me too.

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:44.200
<v Speaker 1>If it happens his eleventh birthday, if that happened.

0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:47.599
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he was.

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 7>Like, I'm so glad that that didn't happen so I

0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:50.840
<v Speaker 7>get to be eleven.

0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:53.599
<v Speaker 1>Wow, that's well, you know what that is something to

0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 1>be thankful for. Absolutely, Uh and Rex, have a great day.

0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Have a great day at school, Buddy, make your teacher blush.

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:07.039
<v Speaker 1>Go tell her to why we all get like uncomfortable?

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Like but hearing a kid saying it? I mean you

0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:13.720
<v Speaker 1>reading Josiah's words, you know, didn't make me as uncomfortable

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 1>as hearing Star. You know, it's funny with teachers that

0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 1>teachers always deal with I always feel the the truth

0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:26.720
<v Speaker 1>because h kids always speak the truth, you know what

0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:29.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Like they say, they from the mouths of babes,

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:32.160
<v Speaker 1>they say. And I know that there are kids that

0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 1>go to school and they probably know way too much

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.279
<v Speaker 1>about what their parents are going through or things that

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, moms are having to deal with whatever twe.

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 4>Too, honest.

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:45.520
<v Speaker 1>But can I tell you that that's the beauty of teachers,

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.360
<v Speaker 1>is that you get to be the person that has

0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.600
<v Speaker 1>to dissect that and then try to digest it.

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:55.960
<v Speaker 3>What's going on? LEXI here, if you could.

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:59.239
<v Speaker 5>Be so proud of yourself that Josiah is so proud

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:01.080
<v Speaker 5>of how you got I'm just thought of how you

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:02.839
<v Speaker 5>raised him for him to be so self aware and

0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:05.280
<v Speaker 5>thankful for that, because the only thing my kid had

0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:07.919
<v Speaker 5>me questioned and he brought an assignment home was it

0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 5>said like something like, what was the worst part of

0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:13.080
<v Speaker 5>your week? And it literally said waking up to come

0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 5>to school and your week he said, coming home to

0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:19.440
<v Speaker 5>play video games and go to sleep. But what are

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.080
<v Speaker 5>you doing? Yeah, he was like little I don't want

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:23.640
<v Speaker 5>to hear all you guys. Yeah, because he has sisters,

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:24.680
<v Speaker 5>He's like, I want to hear the girls.

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:27.200
<v Speaker 5>At the worst part. I'm like, I'm so sorry about that.

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 3>I feel your pain.

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:31.159
<v Speaker 4>Smith brought home a paper last week and he was

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:34.920
<v Speaker 4>supposed to write a short story about his favorite time

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:36.920
<v Speaker 4>of day at school, like the favorite thing that he

0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:39.719
<v Speaker 4>did at school, write a story, draw picture. keV saw this,

0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:43.000
<v Speaker 4>he literally just wrote the word dismissal and that was

0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:47.080
<v Speaker 4>It was so embarrassed, Jackie, what's up?

0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:47.720
<v Speaker 3>True?

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:49.000
<v Speaker 6>Hi?

0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.599
<v Speaker 7>So I this was a few years ago. My son

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 7>is now twelve. So right about the time that he

0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:58.760
<v Speaker 7>was four, we were watching The Fox and the Hound,

0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:05.800
<v Speaker 7>the good old nineties. Yeah, he very randomly one day

0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:09.159
<v Speaker 7>was like, Mom, I'm so glad that you never left

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.600
<v Speaker 7>me in the woods. And that I'll never leave you

0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:16.120
<v Speaker 7>in the woods. That scene where the old woman left

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:21.120
<v Speaker 7>pods the fox in the woods time by it. But

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 7>that was really cute.

0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:24.600
<v Speaker 3>No, that is cute. It is really good.

0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 1>By the way, just tell all your kids, and this

0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 1>is for Smith and Josiah and all those guys that

0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:32.200
<v Speaker 1>at the end of school, you know how all the

0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 1>kids get to they we would get those certificates like

0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 1>it was basically they had like it looked like a

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 1>thing that you could frame and hang it up in school,

0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:42.200
<v Speaker 1>and every kid got one. Every kid got one in

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:46.480
<v Speaker 1>school for something. Mine was for good lunch room behavior.

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 1>That was that was mine. Every kid got honor Society,

0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 1>perfect attendance, the physical fitness test.

0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 3>You couldn't misbehave you were busy, stuff in your face

0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 3>was pretty much my life, right.

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Monica has a funny one for us, Monica, what did

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:07.800
<v Speaker 1>your son do?

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:13.560
<v Speaker 6>Hi? He had to draw a picture of what I

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 6>do every day? And I'm a hairdresser, and apparently he

0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:20.680
<v Speaker 6>thinks sweeping is all I do. So I was holding

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 6>a pole and it looked like it was pretty much

0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 6>money on the floor, but it was supposed to be hairy,

0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:32.240
<v Speaker 6>so I looked like a stripper pretty much.

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 5>And the question the teacher.

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 6>Just put a question mark in saying what do you do?

0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:41.439
<v Speaker 6>It was so embarrassing.

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, teacher or female.

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:47.480
<v Speaker 6>It was a female teacher. So I think that's why
