At my daughter's parent-teacher meeting.
TEACHER: Your child is doing great; she has a reading age of 13 years 7 months.
My daughter is only 8.
On the one hand, I'm Nigerian. I have that immigrant desire for my kids to be the bestest of all time.
But on the other hand, I'm Nigerian. I have a highly developed bullshit sensor. I don't know what game you're playing, school system, but you fucked up. You would've got away with it if you'd said a reading age of 10 or something. But 13? GTFO!
