REPORT CARD

Eight year old little Mary and her mother are walking through the mall together, one day. "Mommy?" asks little Mary "How old are you?

"I'm not telling you" replies the mother.

"Why not?" demands the child.

"Well, that is something you will understand when you've grown up."

"Mommy?" asks Mary again. "How much do you weigh?"

"Never mind" answers the mother.

"Why can't you tell me?"

"Because grownups never talk about how much they weigh. This is something you will learn and understand some day."

"Mommy" insists the child "Can you tell me why you and daddy got divorced?"

"Darling" responds the mother in exasperation. "That's something still very painful for mommy, and I really can't talk about it now."

A few days later little Mary recounts the conversation to a friend at school. The friend explains how to overcome these problems.

"All you have to do is get your mothers drivers license. It has all the infromation about any grownup you want on it. You just read it like a report card and it'll give you anything you need.

So, little Mary does as her friend recommendsed. That night she sneaks into her mothers room while her mom was cooking dinner. She rumages through her purse and finds the drivers license. After examining it çarefully she walks up to her mother and says "I know how old you are, You are 35."

The mother is very surprised.

"And I know how much you weigh. You weigh 136 pounds, right?"

The mother is shocked.

"And I know why you and daddy got a divorce."

The mother dumfounded asked, "Why?"

"It is because you got an F in sex!"
