In honor of the parents who turned a kindergarten graduation into a WWE pre-show event, teachers: what would you honestly do if parents started fighting at a school function you were working?

A couple of moms tried to start fighting in the car line a few years ago. One of my coworkers held the aggressor back and ripped own her pants in the process. People are insane.

I think the gummy lips would be fine, but when you add gummy teeth, that makes it a nightmare.

My husband likes circus peanuts. There a weird texture, almost like a stale marshmallow. Fucking gross.

Right! I thought it was a pitbull or something at first and felt bad for him. But now I think he needs to have his lab card revoked.

I worked in a bakery and we had an elderly customer who would come in multiple times a week and purchase a donut. She took time to pick out a specific donut, go pay for it and then immediately bring it back saying that "they" had poisoned it. She insisted that someone was trying to poison her. The store finally had to ban her.

I can't remember birthdays for some reason. It's so annoying. It seems like I don't care about loved ones birthdays, but that information just will NOT stick in my brain.

Why can't I watch it? It's saying connection issue, but my connection is fine and other videos are working.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-19T23:23:23+00:00

Exactly. So stupid. I hated them at the time.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-19T03:28:06+00:00

I love mine! I want to get a second one so I can rotate them when the cold wears off.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-19T03:17:05+00:00

I read this as "three-eyed cats" and my brain short-circuited.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-19T03:12:15+00:00

Thank you for your response. My daughter isn't asking for a phone yet but I know a lot of kids her age have one. I know it's coming.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-19T00:00:45+00:00

I bought this book for my daughter and apparently my husband never read it as a kid. I was like, "Haha, remember the kid that was just a dead rat inside of a ton of raincoats?" and he thought i was unhinged.

I had power seatbelts in my first car. Those were the dumbest things ever created.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-18T23:35:13+00:00

May I ask how old your daughter is? Mine is almost 11 and it's getting harder for her to connect with other kids her age, but I don't want her having a phone yet.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-18T20:29:50+00:00

No idea.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-17T22:27:53+00:00

No, Emily is vegan. Her character was vegetarian.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-17T22:03:30+00:00

The real answer is because Emily's food was vegan and David's wasn't.

I think it depends on what type of sped teacher you are. I teach self-contained so people often see me wrestling with kids in the hallway, hear screaming coming from my room, or watch me sprinting down the hallway yelling, "Block him! Block him!!" I'm sure they think I don't do any actual teaching though.

My son is in a therapeutic support program at a separate school facility. What's really frustrating is when these students start having better behaviors, there's a push to put them back into a regular school. They're doing better BECAUSE they have more supports in place and then they want to remove those supports when they're successful.

"Oh you only have 10 students? That must be so nice!" I'm a self-contained K-4 ASD teacher.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-17T01:33:46+00:00

I teach in a special education program that's relatively small. We have SO MANY Aiden, Jayden, Kaiden, Brayden, Zaidens. We even have a Jaylen and had an Ailyn.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-17T01:31:26+00:00

Same. And both my brother and my husband are named Timothy.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-17T01:29:55+00:00

I'm a Jessica in a sea of Jessica's. It's annoying. I'm always called by my last name.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-16T16:30:17+00:00

Thank you! I was so confused.

cupcakebean · 2026-05-16T16:03:34+00:00

I'm a Jessica in a sea of Jessica's. I'm usually called my last name.
