    Ahem, reasons for why you shouldn't argue with your children- helpful guide to parents. ;)

    Reasons:
    A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it
    was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even
    though
    it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. The little girl
    stated, "Jonah was swallowed by a whale." Irritated, the teacher
    reiterated
    that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible. The
    little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah". The teacher
    asked, " What if Jonah went to hell?" The little girl replied, "Then you
    ask
    him".
    ------------
    A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work. As she got to one little girl who was working
    diligently,
    she asked what the drawing was... The girl replied, "I'm drawing God."
    The teacher paused and said, "But no one knows what God looks like."
    Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl replied,
    "They will in a minute."
    ---------
    A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five
    and six year olds. After explaining the commandment to "honor"thy Father
    and
    thy Mother, she asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to
    treat
    our brothers and sisters?" Without missing a beat one little boy (the
    oldest
    of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."
    ----------------
    One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at
    the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands
    of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head. She looked at
    her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your hairs white,
    Mom?"
    Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make
    me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white." The little girl thought
    about this revelation for a while and then said, "Momma, how come ALL of
    grandma's hairs are white?"
    -----------------
    The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to
    persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture. "Just think how
    nice
    it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's
    Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'

    A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher,
    She's dead. "
    ------------------
    A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood.Trying to
    make
    the matter clearer, she said, "Now, class, if I stood on my head, the
    blood,
    as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face.." "Yes,"
    the class said. "Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the
    ordinary position the blood doesn't run into my feet?" A little fellow
    shouted, "Cause your feet ain't empty."
    -------------

    The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary
    school
    for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun
    made
    a note, and posted on the apple tray: "Take only ONE. God is watching."
    Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a
    large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, "Take
    all
    you want. God is watching the apples.

    This is my choice for best one:

    A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it
    was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even
    though
    it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. The little girl
    stated, "Jonah was swallowed by a whale." Irritated, the teacher
    reiterated
    that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible. The
    little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah". The teacher
    asked, " What if Jonah went to hell?" The little girl replied, "Then you
    ask
    him".



    But all of them are funny!
