The other day, I taught a first-grade class.
Girl 1 holds up index finger: “My finger is hurt.”
Girl 2: “It’s just a hangnail.”
Girl 1: “Oh no! What can I do? I need to see the nurse!”
It took both me and girl 2 to convince her she wasn’t dying.
Kids this age tend to be drama addicts, but I think this one will become a hypochondriac.
