It seems this young (but not too bright) boy comes home from his first day
at the Yeshivah (Hebrew School), and his father asks him what he learned. "We
learned to say Kaddish, papa."
Well, the father is none too happy to hear this, so he runs down to the synagogue
and confronts the Rabbi. "Rabbi," he says. "What is this about
you teaching my son to say Kaddish? After all, he shouldn't know about this
at so young an age, and besides, I'm a young man myself, in excellent health,
and I expect to live a long time yet!"
The Rabbi answered, "First of all, it's not Kaddish, it's KIDDUSH! and
secondly, you should only live so long 'till he learns it!"
