It's time for that movie.
Yes, THAT movie.
This letter arrived in the mail this week, addressed to the parents of A.J.:
Dear Parents,
In accordance with the life education material presented in our health curriculum, your child will be shown a video about adolescent changes on the date indicated below (March 10th). Boys and girls will be separated and shown the movie pertaining to their gender. Our school nurse, Mrs. H (for the girls) and Mr. W (for the boys), will be conducting a discussion following the video. Students will have an opportunity to ask questions at that time.
Sincerely,
Principal

THAT video. I remember being shown that video in the fourth grade, and though I'm sure it's a different one by now, it was cheesy, horribly acted and sooooo embarrassing back then. I hate that A.J. will have to go through such an uncomfortable experience, while - at the same time - I cannot believe that he is possibly even old enough to be doing this!
Philip came in and read the note over my shoulder when we first received it, and he just began shaking his head and saying, "Wow." He then said, "How is A.J. old enough for this? Gosh, how are we so old that this is already happening?"
Dude, I know. UGH.
