SUBBING POST
One kid was crazy difficult all day. I told his mom/ grandma about his behavior when she came to pick him up at the end of the day. This was our conversation:
GRANDMA: So how did Andy do today?
ME: Well, he squeezed his antibacterial hand gel all over his papers and his classmates' papers, so I confiscated it from him and put him in time out. And then later I had to put him in the corner again for poking his classmates with his pencil. And then at the end of recess, he refused to come back to class, so the librarian had to physically drag him back to class. He refused to do his work and wandered around as he pleased. He is very difficult to manage.
GRANDMA (shrugging nonchalantly): Well, I guess he doesn't like school. Thanks, take care.
ME: Oh. I SEE.
Ha! Very telling! I've said it before, and I'll say it again, some people really shouldn't have kids!
ReplyDeleteNice. I wonder what the mother is like.
ReplyDeleteno wonder. this is terrifying, actually.
ReplyDeleteBooga- If only more people realized that! I so agree.
ReplyDeleteAvitable- I can only imagine!
Z- Yeah. It explains a lot, doesn't it?
