Funny Craigslist Ad #106: Wanted Lovinf Rich Grandparent

Are your career-minded grown up children holding out on you in the grandkids department? Or maybe you’re disappointed in little Timmy’s grades? Want someone to be proud off? Then we’ve got the solution for you – our super gifted daughter!

Our 9 year old daughter has been accepted into a private school for highly-gifted children but we just can’t afford the tuition fees and neither can our family. Our only choice is too seek a ‘new’ family member that can help; so we are looking for a rich grandparent to “adopt” our daughter and help her get the education she deserves.

A bit about your new granddaughter: She is a curious and intelligent girl with a passion for learning. A keen reader who can plough through many books in an afternoon. She is a big fan of Greek mythology and dinosaurs and could talk to you about these topics endlessly.

Admittedly she’s no starving African child but the traditional school system has left her isolated and unable to reach her true potential. This new school is really great. Seriously, it’s like the one from X-Men! Not that she can move furniture with her mind or anything (yet!).

This place will challenge her mentally, support her emotionally and integrate her socially with children just like her. It’s exactly what she needs and we hope to give her this opportunity. Or rather: we hope YOU’LL give her this opportunity.

We need $23,500 just to pay the tuition fees for 2010 to 2011 academic year. Plus other costs for uniforms, school trips etc. Our daughter is rich in heart and mind but poor in wallet. We seek a “grandparent” rich in all three.

By becoming a “grandparent” you will get the following:

• Photo of you with your new granddaughter
• Handmade birthday & Christmas present
• Copy of school reports
• Trip to the library where she will ignore you to read her favorite books.
• Invite to her birthday party
• Join us on the school run one day and ask her about her day at school.
• Family picnic
• Supervised visit (provided you live in Los Angeles)
• Drawing by granddaughter
• 4 family outings to free museums in LA
• Disneyland outing – but no scary rides
• Parent’s evening updates
• Birthday party invite
• Attend a school run trip
• 4 supervised visits (Los Angeles only)
• Greek mythology lesson
• Family hike
• School events invite
• Baked vegan goods by mom
• Manly choirs by dad like mow your lawn (but not in hayfever season)
• Monthly lunch at our apartment
• See and feed our daughter’s pet lizard.
