So many, but this is my favourite!I did work experience at a primary school a few years ago, and was helping a little girl with her paintings. When it was done I said 'That's nice, are you going to take it home to show your mummy and daddy?' and she replied, 'My daddy died from cancer last year, and now mummy lives with a woman. Grandma will like it though!'. Thankfully, at that moment, the bell rang and she ran off!
