The best part was when the teacher would give it back to him so him and the guys could shoot at targets during recess.

O.k., you got me on that one - no target practice at recess. Woulda beat the hell outa hopscotch...

Me, 3rd Grade 1972:

The Spooky Man

As I was walking along, I saw a man with three green noses and 15 mouths and 4 legs.
He was an ugly monster. Every evening he would rise out of the swamp and murder most everybody. And smash every bodys house.

One night a man took a powerful gun and he died by the swamp and a truck carried him away.
And that was the end of him.

THE END.

Today, you would be immediately removed from the classroom, and scheduled for an "exam".

My son is 4 as well in daycare/school. The older kids all talk about "black spiderman" and shorting people which of course he bring home and talks about. I had a chat with the teachers. He now knows that's all pretend but if you fall in the retention pond, you'll die. He's obsessed with Wolverine, which he saw on TV before I got up one morning. Somehow they can separate real from fake.

Most ADD cases are a freakin joke. If my son sat quietly for hours on end, I'd check him for a pulse. Hell, I had a hard time paying attention for a 50 min college class.

Agreed!
