"A CHILD ' S VIEW OF RETIREMENT"
When school reconvened after the Christmas break,
the teacher asked his small pupils how they spent
the holiday . One boy ' s reply went something like
this:
"We always go to my Grandma ' s . They used to live up
here in a big .-; brick house , but my Grandpa retarded and
they moved to Florida . So we went to Florida . They
live in a place with a lot of other retarded people
and they live in houses made of tin . They ride great
big old tricycles and go to a big building they call
the "wrecked hall" , but if it was wrecked, it got
fixed, cause it ' s alright now . They play games there
and do exercises , but they don ' t do them any good .
There isa swimming pool and they go in it and just
stand in the water with their hats on . I guess they
don ' t know how to swim , My Grandma used to make cookies ' n
stuff but guess she forgot how . Nobody cooks , they eat
in restaurants . My Grandma says Grandpa worked all his
life and earned his retardment , but I wish they would
move backup here . "
