Ah yes...the wisdom and knowledge of youth

I couldn't not post about this.

Cole is studying for a district wide social studies assessment test given to all 5th graders. It covers, Nebraska history, government, civics, economics..etc. So we were going over the 3 branches of government: executive branch, legislative branch, and judicial branch.(makes me long for the school house rock videos..lol)

So I am quizing him on who makes up each branch..who makes up the Congress, etc. We get to the Supreme Court and I say "what is the Supreme Court"...and his answer:

"Isn't that like where Judge Judy holds her show?"

There are no words. Ah yes...the wisdom of young America..Jay Leno would be so proud..lol.
