Generally, we tell our kids to call 911 if they ever need help. But one child took the lesson to a completely new level!
The child was experiencing problems with his homework, so he made the decision to call for help. Since 911 was the only number he knew, he took up the phone and dialed it. Is it true that the people listed on this number are ones that need help? Indeed. I think he was right someplace, too.
The operator who was answering began asking the standard questions. Following a lengthy period of miscommunication, the operator discovered that the child truly had difficulty with math problems.
The entire phone call they had is available below. We were really amused by this and laughed a lot. The YouTube video is also available at the conclusion of the article.
Operator: emergency 911
Boy: I do require assistance.
Operator: What’s wrong?
Boy: Using my arithmetic.
Operator: Using your lips?
Boy: Not using my math. I must complete it. Are you going to assist me?
Operator: Alright. What city do you reside in?
Boy: I can’t do the math.
Operator: You’re right, I understand. But where do you live?
Boy: No, I’d rather have a phone conversation with you.
Operator: I’m not able to do it. I can dispatch another person to assist you.
Boy: Alright.
Operator: What type of math problems are you having trouble with?
Boy: These are my takeaways.
Operator: You must complete the takeaways, I see.
Boy: Certainly
Operator: Okay, so what’s the issue?
Boy: I need your assistance with my math.
Operator: Alright, explain the arithmetic to me.
Boy: Alright. What is 8 minus 16?
Operator: You inform me. How much do you estimate it to be?
Boy: I have no idea, 1.
Operator: Not at all. What is your age?
Boy: I’m just four years old.
Operator: Four!
Boy: Certainly.
Operator: What’s the next issue? That was a difficult one.
Boy: Well, this one’s here. Five things to take away.
Operator: Five minus five, what do you think that is worth?
Boy: five
Female: Johnny What are you doing, exactly?
Boy: I’m getting help with my math from the policeman.
Woman: Did I mention that I was going to call you?
Operator: The mother is here.
Boy: You told me to call someone if I needed assistance.
Woman: The police aren’t who I meant!
I Overheard My Husband Telling Our 4-Year-Old to Keep a Secret
Paige, a dedicated career woman, came home from a business trip to overhear her husband, Victor, and their four-year-old son, Mason, discussing a secret. Victor told Mason not to share what he’d seen with Paige, as it would “make her sad.” This unnerved Paige, but she brushed it off, assuming it was something minor.
After more business travel, Paige noticed a small but strange detail in a photo Victor sent — a pair of unfamiliar, high-end shoes in their living room. She shrugged it off at first, but doubt crept in. When she returned home, she caught Victor in bed with another woman, and Mason’s earlier words, “Mommy, don’t go in there; you’ll be sad,” now made devastating sense.
Victor tried to blame Paige’s busy career for his infidelity, arguing he needed “human contact.” Heartbroken and realizing the weight her son had carried in keeping this secret, Paige confronted her marriage’s painful reality. Supported by her family, she asked Victor to leave, choosing to divorce and rebuild her life for her and Mason.
Through it all, Paige resolved to prioritize her own and her son’s well-being, even amid the pain of betrayal.
