In
a Recreational Vehicle Resort
After a Christmas break, the teacher asked her small
pupils to write how they spent their holidays. One small
boy's effort sounded like this:
We always used to spend
Christmas with Grandpa and Grandma. They used to live
here in a big brick home, but Grandpa got retarded and
they moved to Florida. Now they live in a place with a
lot of other retarded people.
They all live in little
tin boxes. They ride on big three-wheeled tricycles and
all wear name tags, because they don't know who they
are. They go to a big building called a wrecked hall,
but if it got wrecked, they got it fixed because it's
all right now.
They play games and do
exercises there but they don't do them very good. There
is a swimming pool there. They go into it and just stand
there with their hats on. I guess they don't know how to
swim.
As you go into the park
there is a doll house with a man sitting in it. He
watches all day so they can't get out without him seeing
them. When they can sneak out, they go to the beach and
pick up shells that they think are dollars.
My grandma used to bake
cookies and stuff, but I guess that she forgot how.
Nobody cooks, they just eat out in fast food
restaurants. Some of the people are so retarded they
don't know how to cook at all, so my grandma and grandpa
bring food into the wrecked hall and they call it
"pot luck". My Grandma says Grandpa worked
hard in his life and earned his retardedment.
I wish they would move
back up here, but I guess the man in the doll house
won't let them out. It was sure great for me to get back
home again!!!!!
