Today's episode of 5th period was outta control! Sometimes when my kids act like they drank a little crazy in their milk carton, I get crazy right back at 'em (call security, write referrals, raise my voice, etc.)
But today I just sat back and enjoyed the show . . .
(Enter S, a teeny little volatile thing with an ice-breaking attitude).
S: J, I HEARD you talked to the counselor about me. You snitch! You act like a lil ass kid!
J: Whatever! F--- you! I don't give a f--- about you! (commences singing)
S: Grow up! You snitch! No one likes you! I don't give an f--- about YOU! I swear Ms. Kiefer I'm gonna slap him.
J: Do I look like I care? Do I look like I care? Do I look like I care? Do I look like I care? Do I--
(Enter V, a girl who suffers from a total lack of a FILTER).
V: GROW A D--- and THEN talk to us!
J: I'll go outside and show it to you right now. (starts undoing his belt). Come on! Let's go!
V: ACT LIKE A N----! ACT LIKE A N----! ACT LIKE A N----!
J: You got me f----- up. F---.
etc, etc. I just had to take a deep breath and practice calm, positive thinking.
Afterwards, I told them they were all being ridiculous. And then we went on with our activity about racial profiling. Winter break, where art thou???
