Recess

Rebecca came home from school today. Like usual, I asked her if she was a good girl. She usually always is, but she did say that once she had to go to a five minute recess. She did not sound like this was a good thing. Turns out, in her class, a five-minute "recess" is time-out. Yes, I am aware that the literal meaning of recess is break, but still. She'll be ruined for Kindergarten. "Okay, kids. Line up for recess." I see hysterics in the future! I'm being dramatic, but come on. Let's call a time-out a time-out.
