my sister-in-law, who has no kids and does not spend time around children ever, decided she wanted to take my kids on an āoutingā yesterday. (she sees them like 4 times a year usually). she took them to some weird historical u.s. military fort museum thing, itās like a big compound with like 15 buildings enclosed by a fence. anyway my 5-yr-old saw one of those red metal fire alarm boxes on the wall and asked his aunt āwhat does that say?ā
now the correct answer to this question, in my opinion, would be āthat is a fire alarm. we only touch fire alarms if there is a fire. if there is a fire, you would pull the handle and it would make a very loud noise so that other people know to get out of the building.ā
according to several reliable sources, my sister-in-lawās answer to the question was, āit says āpull.āā
so anyway thatās how they managed to evacuate all 15 buildings at the museum and why this is probably their last āoutingā for a while.
