Buttoning buttons, zipping zippers and cutting with scissors...
Little B's interview with the principal of the school he is set to attend in September 2010 unearthed dreaded lapses in his education this far. He is as of yet unable to button buttons, get dressed and undressed, zip zippers or cut with precision.
In addition, the principal asked Simone if little B knew how to use a toilet. To which Simone replied with great aplomb, "Yes."
"And wipe himself afterward?" the principal inquired further.
"Yes," Simone assured the principal that little B could indeed wipe himself.
Of course, the principal probably wanted to know whether little B was toilet trained, which he is not. While the boy knows how to use a toilet and wipe himself and wash his hands afterward, his efforts so far have all been dry runs...
Hey, on the plus side, he does read very well...
Does that count?
