Just
when you think you have heard all the kinds of stupid antics kids do in school,
something new comes along to prove you wrong.
It
was lunchtime in the staff lounge and I had just sat down for lunch when three very
agitated teachers entered:
T1: I can't believe it.
T2: I couldn't believe it either! What were they
thinking??
T3: They weren't thinking, that's the problem!!
While
it's not polite to eavesdrop, I could not ignore the very loud, agitated discussion.
T1: I mean, in the bathroom of
all places. Disgusting doesn't begin to describe it!
T2: That's what boys do. Disgusting
stuff...just showing off!
T3: But they were peeing on
each other!! All five of them! Peeing on each other! And laughing about it!
T2: You don't hear girls doing anything
like that.
T1: Girls can't do that...can
they? I don't see how it would be physically possible.
I'm
guessing that school day (year?) is over for these boys and parents have been called
to pick them up.
Now
before you make assumptions about the social/economic makeup of the pupil population
at this school, let me tell you that this is one of the three highest rated
schools in the district. Over the years, I've seen kids dropped off at school
in Mercedes, Lexus,Tesla, every make of
electric car currently on the market and even one Lamborghini.
I would have liked to see what car the boys' parents drove over to pick them
up...
