In T’s never ending assigned reports, he got a new one today... someone who influenced the world and inspired him in some way.

He chose Michael Jackson.
He just spent 5 minutes thinking of titles, and ideas... then he said - “You’re not allowed to worship a celebrity, so I hope my teacher doesn’t think I’ll sound that way. Michael Jackson isn’t Jesus, but he was kind of like Jesus. “

“T, he did a lot, but no, he can’t be compared to Jesus.”

“I know, mom. I just think he‘s a person who did a lot of stuff that Jesus wants us to do. I’m not worshiping him, just want people to know how much good he did, and how I think it’s pretty cool. Plus, his music is awesome. He changed the world, right?”


I thought this was such a strange thing for T to say, for multiple reasons... especially since he has no idea that MJ was always accused of having a “Messiah complex” while alive (probably did imho).
Anyway, this report should be interesting, and I’m glad my kid knows the difference between ‘worship’ and ‘respect/influenced by’.

Most kids will probably have Ghandi or MLK or mother Teresa, my kid’s report will be Michael Jackson.lol. I’m sure other people will have sports figures or something too though. I guess I can only blame myself for teaching him so much about Michael Jackson over the past couple years. Oh well.

There was a time you could replace just the rubber wiper part for a couple of bucks (can't buy anymore) now you have to buy the whole wiper blade which costs 10-25 dollars depending on the brand so much for cutting down on waste. Buy a product and they don't stand by it I know your frustration
3 wipers last week installed $65
