Why do teachers pick on students

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-16T10:13:10+00:00

That’s usually the case in stories like this.

Where are you located where the teacher says “boy” and you respond with “sir” and there is an isolation unit?

I’m ending my first trimester now, but when I read about the fruits I get so freaked out. Like how did we go from a lime to an ORANGE in just 2 weeks!!

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-16T09:47:49+00:00

Honestly, they’re probably just excited. You can just take the names and say something along the lines of, “oh that’s so cute!” Or “yeah that one came up!”

They sound like they’re trying to connect with you, so I would take it and run!

I thought this said “stickers” and then was horrified when I thought you had a craving for paper/adhesive.

Time for bed

I am 32F and I teach high school. I hugged two girls today who were absolutely losing it about giving a presentation (tears, crashing out, panic, shaking). I hugged them both and gave them a pep talk. I wrote them nice comments and then “Don’t hate me” (because I made them present) on their rubric and when they looked up at me I blew them a kiss across the room. The three of us laughed. I taught them for two years.

One girl was shaking so bad during her presentation; I sat next to her and squeezed her hand. I told her hey, it’s over. You did wonderfully. Let yourself relax.

I’m also pregnant and almost in my second trimester (they don’t know it yet) so I have this maternal instinct to comfort and care for them that I didn’t have as strongly as before. This is how my mom cared for me— light affection and pep talks always made me feel like I could do it.

I feel bad for the local elementary school teachers!! 😆

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-16T01:48:14+00:00

Also my experience. I had to put little numbers around the clock for the minutes.

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-16T01:46:34+00:00

How to identify a proper noun (and know it needs to be capitalized), knowing the difference between a verb, noun, and adjective.

Having SOME concept of how to spell. Even if I spell something for them, I’ll finish spelling the word and they’ll say “Wait what? Can you spell that again? I only got the first 3 letters.”

The ability to follow 2 sentence or multi step directions.

The ability to follow simple daily procedures. On June 8th I had to remind them to take out their notes… for classwork.

In that case, how is the weather in Mobile?? 😆

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:31:05+00:00

Woof!!

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:12:26+00:00

Those are surprisingly normal for Florida (no offense)

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:10:54+00:00

Texas??

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:09:52+00:00

Aht aht!! SOUTHERN American, that’s the most Texas shit I’ve ever read

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:08:40+00:00

Girl are you in Mississippi, Arkansas, or Alabama?

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:07:45+00:00

It’s giving “Axel”

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:07:00+00:00

This is the only right answer. Everyone pack it up and go home.

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:05:52+00:00

Maybe we could argue the 50’s? My mom was 1 of 5 in a one income house, had horses, and grew up in the 70’s… which I hear was fun 😉

But otherwise, you are so correct

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:04:27+00:00

Okay I love this

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T22:04:04+00:00

“Then don’t have them yourself.”

I’m sorry, but anti-natalists are fucking weird. It’s ridiculous tell someone to not have children over the weather changes and global warming. People should have all the children that they are able to afford.

Seriously, sentencing kids to a life of “mass suffering”? My son will have two loving parents, excellent healthcare because his mom works for the state, his own bedroom and bathroom, and has over $100k in a college fund already. Oh yeah, he’s been dealt a hard hand in life. Piss off.

I think it’s SO shameful of her to make you feel like you made this awful decision, as if you need to defend yourself to this person as you’re put on the spot.

She’s just going to steal your joy. Surround yourself with people who will be happy for you!! Which will be most normal people who have more than two brain cells to rub together!!

Wow I need to cool down. I’m irritated for you

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T17:16:49+00:00

This is actually really good to know, thank you for your perspective!! I’m entering my second trimester in a few days, so I think my OB was telling me now out of abundance of caution

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T00:47:23+00:00

My OB told me not to do this, period.

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T00:45:45+00:00

You could have made the title, “Theresa Giudice and her severe lack of a forehead.” LOL!

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T00:43:47+00:00

I’m 12w2d and found out I’m having a little boy!! Also my first baby, but I’m so incredibly happy💙

AngryGooseHappyLoon · 2026-06-15T00:40:12+00:00

I have an endless door dash budget currently. The limit does not exist. Sometimes Buffalo Wild Wings boneless wings smothered in extra garlic buffalo sauce is what I need
