Well her folks thought it would be a good idea to name her havana. Maybe calmer heads prevailed and the rest of the kids decided they would rather (maybe) learn something during that time.

The parents named this demon child “Havana”. Why not “Fidel” ?

All I can figure is....the “cool” of it has lapsed into passe.

Sure didn’t take long. But hey....this is the generation raised on video games.

My son’s school already had the day off, as it was designated as a “bad weather day”.

Yes, can you say set up? Interesting that she and TV just happened to meet despite her not being a teen.

She can say hello in eight languages is sufficient to say she speaks 8 languages. I don't see the word fluently in there.

And she wants to be an astronaut, right?

A friggin’, braindead 7 year old. Time for the adults in this country to get their heads out of their a$$es, grow up and start raising their offspring as Americans again.

So fake it makes my teeth hurt.

So, who took the pic?

Mom hauled her out for the pic?

And the kid has an account with a screen name of “@The Tiny Diplomat”?

And references Columbine?

Mommy needs some attention and using her kid will do.
