He Stuck His Tongue Out At Me

"He stuck his tongue out at me. He made the symbol of a gun. He pretended to shoot me. This is NOT OKAY!” This is being yelled to my back. As I try to unhook this child from a fence, So, I can lead seventeen children into the school. I want to stick out my tongue at her, and she is a teacher.

And they call this 'School.' A Real Education, I guess. ~ Lock 'em up

Please tell me she did not yell all of this in front of the children! Oh dear!

She is a PREschool teacher and she yelled it in front of all 18 kindergarteners, two other teachers and her own 19 preschoolers, oh yes she did.

...and we wonder why there is so many school shootings. Though most of these children have been subject to bad parenting, some just need to be left hooked to the fences

I love thinking about hooking three of them to a fence.
