Six year old grandson telling me how stressful Kindergarten can be. We're going trout fishing to unwind we need it [View all]

Dyslexic bad punctuation post yet I’m smiling inside.

Six year old grandson telling my son 19 and i how stressed out kindergarten is since this one girl moved into his class.
He says she bothers him , as in she always eat lunch with him follow him on playground, poor guy cannot even use the swings or sliding board or jungle gym with the fellas she’s is always there.

I said she seems intense , she even told him he always has to be on her kick ball team and at nap time she wants to lay on blankets next to him. I said to him years almost over and what is she thinking i said dude you are in a tight spot you got problems he agreed.
