3rd Grade? That's Still Kinda Old, I learned it in 1st or possibly kindergarten! But 2nd grade is probably when most people learn it.

Teach him something by selling him to slavers in a foreign country.

There is absolutely no way you were taught that in Kindergarten. Third grade seems about right.

Wouldn't it be something if you could sue the teachers? "My son doesn't know algebra! It's all your fault Mr. Gonads. How could you not teach him this!?" "Well ma'am, your son hasn't been in school for 2 years. If he would have came we would have taught him it." "No, it's your fault for him not being there! He said your name made him laugh and he couldn't concentrate. I'm taking you to court for making my son an idiot!" Ahh, America..

OP might have been paraphrasing. She didn't use a quote.

There's still slaves in the world. It's called being in retail. OP's kid is on to something.
