Answer: They are playing Monopoly.
So when dad goes to jail and Mom needs to sell her hotel, that makes daughter happy.
A man is sent to prison for the first time.
At night, the lights in the cell block are turned off, and his cellmate goes over to the bars and yells, “Number twelve!” The whole cell block breaks out laughing. A few minutes later, somebody else in the cell block yells, “Number four!” Again, the whole cell block breaks out laughing.
The new guy asks his cellmate what’s going on. “Well,” says the older prisoner, “we’ve all been in this prison for so long. We all know the same jokes. So we just yell out the number instead of saying the whole joke.”
So the new guy walks up to the bars and yells, “Number twenty-nine!” This time the whole cell block rocks with the loudest laughter, prisoners rolling on the floor laughing hysterically.
When the guffaws die down, the bewildered new guy turns to the older prisoner and asks, “How come you guys were laughing so hard this time?”
“Oh,” says the older man wiping tears from his eyes, “we’d never heard that one before.”
My daughter hates school.
One weekend, she cried and fretted and tried every excuse not to go back on Monday.
Sunday morning on the way home from brunch, the crying and whining built to a crescendo.
At the end of my rope, I finally stopped the car and explained, “Honey, it’s a law. If you don’t go to school, they’ll put daddy in jail.”
She looked at me, thought for a moment, then asked, “How long would you have to stay?”
Early one morning, a mother went in to wake up her son.
“Wake up, son. It’s time to go to school!”
“But why, mom? I don’t want to go!”
“Give me two reasons why you don’t go!”
“Well, the kids hate me, and the teachers hate me, too!”
“Oh, that’s no reason not to go to school. Come on now and get ready!”
“Give me two reasons why i should go to school!”
“Well, for one, you’re 52 years old. And for another, you’re the principal!”
