if a=b and b=c the c=...

Today I had the kids read a news article about a couple in England who had a baby 5 years ago and only just recently revealed his gender to everyone. They were basically protesting gender roles and how people treat boys and girls differently.

I make the kids read news articles every day and I like to get the most controversial ones possible. This particular one brought up this conversation:

Daysheia: Oh these have GOT to be some white people. White people is crazy.

Me: I know. I hate white people.

Daysheia: My bad Ms. Vinson, but you ain't white. You black.

Me: So, I'm not crazy then?

Daysheia: ...Well. I guess you must be white then cause you DEFINITELY crazy.
