Teen Marriages

Here I am yet again…I told you this year was a doozy!

This story happened in writing class yet again…this group is very creative and they seem to love writing, which is great because I usually spend half the time struggling to get the kids to write.

The assignment was writing a Cinderella story. We read all sorts of different Cinderella stories from different cultures and with funny twists. My personal favorite was “Bubba the Cowboy Prince” you should definitely check it out!

Well the kids get started on their writing and they have amazing ideas; Hooparella, Donkeyrella, and the list goes on and on!
One of my students decided instead of a ball he wanted his Cinderboy to attend a prom. He was telling me about his story and how Cinderboy goes to prom and falls in love and gets married.
Amy a girl in my class overhears this conversation and gets a really confused look on her face…she looks at Sam and says “Are they teenagers?” and he was like “Ya, they are going to prom” and she looks at him and says “Didn’t you know that most teenage marriages end in divorce?”
