moral of the story is.........

A teacher told her young class to ask their parents For a family story with amoral at the end of it, and To return the next day to tell their stories.

In the classroom the next day, Joe gave his example First, "My dad is a farmerand we have chickens. One Day we were taking lots of eggs to market in a basketOn the front seat of the truck when we hit a big bump In the road; the basketfell off the seat and all the Eggs broke.

"The moral of the story is not to put all Your eggs in one basket.."Very good," said the teacher.

Next, Mary said, "We are farmers too. We had twenty Eggs waiting to hatch, butwhen they did we only got Ten chicks."

"The moral of this story is not to count Your chickens before they're hatched.."

"Very good ," said the teacher again, very pleased with The response so far.

Next it was Barney's turn to tell his story: "My dad Told me this story about myAunt Karen…. Aunt Karen Was a flight engineer in the war and her plane got Hit.She had to bail out over enemy territory and all She had was a bottle ofwhiskey, a machine gun and a Machete."

"Go on," said the teacher, intrigued.

"Aunt Karen drank the whiskey on the way down to Prepare herself; then shelanded right in the middle Of a hundred enemy soldiers. She killed seventy ofThem with the machine gun until she ran out of Bullets. Then she killed twentymore with the machete Till the blade broke. And then she killed the last tenWith her bare hands."

"Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, "What did Your father say was themoral of that frightening Story?"

The child said "Stay away from Aunt Karen when she's been Drinking..."
