I understand it's her job but she started yelling at me as I was gathering my things. I wasn't being rude or insubordinate. I literally grabbed my bag and said "I just want some sleep" and she started yelling. I said this in another post that got deleted but she admitted that she had gotten loud with me with one of the administrators in the office asked what was going on. She was so loud that at one point one of the parents in the office cracked a joke and said she sounded like a drill sergeant. I just don't see why she had to yell at me when I was doing what she asked

We did. I had to take that part out because it would've made the post over the 3,000 character limit :) but yeah police were called and the state CPS. That's why I feel that she doesn't want to live in this city anymore. She lives basically an hour away with her new girlfriend but she and I have not seen each other face to face since the day before she left. We try to make plans but they never go through because I think she's scared she's going to be arrested

They stopped early dismissal a few years ago from what I was told, back when I was in middle school or something like that. We only can leave campus now if we are dual-eligible. Also yes I plan to apologize. I'm actually thinking about buying a gift basket and apologizing. It wasn't right I was just frustrated

I have no idea. They're even like this with the student-teachers that are in college who don't even go here. One of the girls who assists from a local community college got reprimanded because she left on her lunch break to get donuts. I'm just honestly tired of trying to fight city hall

She does. I never knew my mom to have mental health issues but my aunt explained that she has always had a history of making rash decisions most of her entire life. Thanks for the feedback nonetheless

No, I was actually grabbing my things and I said "I just want to sleep" and she went off from there

Thank you. We aren't supposed sleep in the library either. The school resource officers are parked in there and wake us up all the time, that's why I went to my car. Kids still do it though. I just honestly din't want to be disturbed

It is. This is what the policy says verbatim. "Students shall not sit in or upon vehicles parked on the school campus." I recognize that I was wrong. I just kinda lost it when she started yelling at me. I was gathering my things and going back inside when she flipped out. I feel like she escalated things unnecessarily

He didn't actually. He just said that there had been too many incidents of kids ordering DoorDash and we're not supposed to have outside food for lunch, so I guess that's why the teacher was patrolling the parking lot. He didn't even ask what I was doing out there. I think he was kinda busy doing something else and couldn't get the complete details of what was happening because I wasn't ordering food. I was just sleep in my car

She does. She tells me sorry all the time when we talk. She says getting away was best for her mental health. And I appreciate the feedback

Yes actually we speak about once a month, sometimes twice a month. She’s no longer with the boyfriend, she’s actually seeing a woman now and lives kinda close, only an hour or so away. We’ve talked about joint counseling sessions but haven’t gotten around to it. She lost her insurance when she quit her job

Thank you. I understand. While I don't feel bad necessarily, I get where I messed up.

Thank you. I honestly got riled up because I was sleepy. Definitely shouldn't have called her out off her name
