Incident Report

My son brought home a Incident report from his school yesterday, I want to share it with you.
Today at recess, a girl classmate of Reed's reported that he told her he wanted to kiss her. The girl reported that she did not like it.

When I talked to Reed, I explained that, at school, it is inappropriate to tell someone that you want to kiss them. Reed understands that kissing a parent or family member is appropriate, but telling classmates that he wants to kiss them may make them feel uncomfortable.

Reed apologized to the student and agreed that, in the future, he will tell students that he wants to be their friend.

I called the school counselor back and said "He's 6 years old for God's Sake! Back in my day they didn't tell you, they just did it. Look how polite he is!"

What are they going to think when he tells a girl he wants to carry her books?
