"Playing Doctor"
The seven-year old told her mom, that a little
boy in her class asked her to play doctor.
"Oh, dear," the mother nervously sighed.
"What happened, honey?"
"Nothing, he made me wait 45 minutes and
then double-billed the insurance company."

"Who's Your Daddy?"
The policeman was walking his beat when he saw
two men fighting and a little boy standing alongside
them crying, "Daddy, Daddy!"
The officer pulled the two men apart and, turning to
the boy, asked, "Which one is your father, lad?"
"I don't know," the boy said, rubbing tears from his
eyes. "That's what they're fighting about!"

"Suckling Your Thumb"
A boy had reached four without giving up the
habit of suckling his thumb, though his mother
had tried everything from bribery to reasoning
to painting it with lemon juice to discourage
the habit.
Finally she tried threats, warning her son that,
"If you don't stop suckling your thumb, your
stomach is going to blow up like a balloon."
Later that day, walking in the park, mother and
son saw a pregnant woman sitting on a bench.
The four-year-old considered her gravely for a
minute, then spoke to her saying, "Uh-oh... I
know what you've been doing!"
