A 5 year old boy goes up to his mother and asks… “Mommy, how old are you?” The mother laughs nervously as she replies… “Oh honey, there are just some things you’re not supposed to ask a lady.”
Curiously, the boy inquires further… “Mommy, how much do you weigh?” Again, nervously, the mother gently replies… “Now honey, that’s another thing you should never ask a lady.”
The young boy, still curious and now frustrated, makes one final attempt at questioning his mother when he asks her… “Mommy, why did you and daddy get a divorce?” The mother, now very focused, carefully replies… “Oh honey, your daddy and I each love you very much. It has nothing to do with you. It’s just a grown-up thing. Please don’t worry about that.”
The next day at school, the boy’s best buddy notices the frustration in his friend and asks him… “Hey, why are you so down today?” The first boy replies… “I feel like my mom is hiding stuff from me. She won’t answer any of my questions.” He tells his buddy the questions his mom wouldn’t answer, and his friend replies… “If you wait until your mom is in the shower, then you can look at her driver’s license - it should have all the answers there.”
Excited, the next day, while his mother is in the shower, he goes to her purse and finds his answers there on her driver’s license. Armed with new data, the boy waits until his mother comes out of the shower and he approaches her to say… “Mommy, I know how old you are.” to which she replies… “Oh honey, I told you…” The boy interrupts her saying… “You’re 35.” Nervously, the mother says.. “that’s right honey. How did you…” Interrupting her again he says… “And I also know that you weigh 125lbs.” Astonished, the mother replies… ”How in the world…” And in one final interruption, the boy says… “AND, I know why you and daddy got a divorce.”
Shocked and curious, the mother asks her son… “Oh honey, why do you think your daddy and I got a divorce?” To which the boy replies…
