While doing my walking at the local school district. Apparently the 4th grade class had an assignment on writing an essay about a family member. FAV family member, that is. Of course there were NO I love my stepmom essays. That goes without saying. But one in particular caught my eye.

Here is the synopsis:

I Love My Dad

On Weekends my buddy lets me stay up until 11:00 at night playing Black Ops
He makes the things I like to eat especially on Tuesday nights
Spaghetti, Pizza, Tacos
My dad and I play Rock Heroes 3 and my dad can really rock out.
My comrade plays Zombie with me and sometimes he when he's not winning, he throws the controller on the chair.
I really appreciate my dad, he is very respectful, caring and responsible.

My analysis:

God help any SM that's involved here.
Dad is once again playing guilty daddy/buddy to child
Kid is pouring on the sugar (manipulation); he knows which side his bread is buttered on.

I will say that this child can write and spell MUCH better than the boy crazy VD (SD12) who is in the sixth grade (in name only).
