A child dials 911 seeking assistance from police officer.

Boy: I need help.

Operator: What’s wrong?

Boy: My math.

Operator: What kind of math problem?

Boy: These are my takeaways.

Operator: Okay, what’s the problem?

Boy: What is 8 minus 16?

Operator: You tell me. How much do you think it is?

Boy: I don’t know, 1?

Operator: Not quite. How old are you?

Boy: I’m four.

Operator: Four! What’s the next problem?

Boy: Five minus five.

Operator: What do you think that is?

Boy: Five.
