Good morning...?

I saw this child, age 3, wearing a shirt this morning with some English on it. As usual, I read the English for both the wearer's and my enjoyment. This morning though, my reaction was more of shock than enjoyment.

This is, word for word, what the shirt said:
My mother
drank,
smoked,
and dropped acid
during pregnancy.

No other words. No "just kidding" or "...and I turned out fine!" What I find most remarkable about this, is that the English is correct. (I suppose you could put "my" between "during" and "pregnancy," but I don't think it's needed)

No witty remark from yours truly. Make your own.

Yes, minus the teenage and ninja parts...

I was a turtle in the kids' annual winter carnival production put on for their parents. When I was 3, I wanted to grow up and become a turtle. My dream finally came true.
