Teacher is trying to teach her class about manners on a first date, and gets a different answer

It can be hard to find the right words sometimes and it’s always best to be polite, then again, some folks prefer a much more direct approach. Either way, this teacher didn’t expect to get the answer that she received!

A teacher is trying to teach good manners to her third-grade students.

She turned to her class and said, “Michael, if you were on a date having dinner with a nice young lady, how would you tell her that you have to go to the bathroom?”

Michael said, “Just a minute, I have to go pee.”

The teacher responded by saying, “Well, that would be rude and impolite. What about you Sherman, how would you say it?”

Sherman said, “I am sorry, but I really need to go to the bathroom. I’ll be right back.”

“That’s better, but it’s still not very nice to say the word bathroom at the dinner table. And you, little Johnny, can you behave for once and show us your good manners?”

Johnny said, “I would say: Darling, may I please be excused for a moment? I have to shake hands with a very dear friend of mine, who I hope to introduce you to after dinner.”

That’s when the teacher fainted…

Give that kid an A+!
