Kids These Days ...

While proctoring the ACT this morning, I had a few "Kids these days" moments in my head...

The best of which, I will share. They're too funny not to.

Girl raises her hand
I approach
Girl: What's this? points to "Number with area code"
Me: That's your phone number.
Girl: I already put that up here. points to "House number"
Me: That's your address.
Girl: Oh ... what's my area code?
Me: Blank Stare

Same Girl raises her hand
Me: Under my breath Oh Dear ...
Girl: What's this? points to "Social Security Number"
Me: Your social security number.
Girl: Looking at her form I don't have one of those.
Me: Blank Stare Yes you do.
Girl: I don't see it anywhere.
Me: You should have it memorized. It's kind of important.
Girl: Oh. I don't know it.
Me: I gathered that.

Same Girl approaches me during the break
Me: Under my breath Seriously ...
Girl: How many minutes do we have left in break?
Me: Points to clock/Blank Stare 10:25
Girl: Looking at the clock So, how many?
Me: 2.

I would love to tell you those were the only instances of "Kids these days" I had ... but I can't because it wasn't.
