Crazy Kindergarten Teacher

[jodief100]

B's teacher has requested that parents donate food for a Thanksgiving breakfast that his class is giving for the custodial / kitchen staff at the school. Do you think she'd approve of me dropping off a live chicken? Muhahahahahahahaha!!!!!! I wouldn't really do it but I can just imagine her reaction.

I wonder what she expects the kids to donate? Would she get upset if someone donated a turkey or ham? I would do it just to get her knickers in a knot. Or is processed food that she can pretend wasn't alive acceptable to her?

Just went to look at the note - Her suggestions were juices, fruits or donuts. The mere fact that she suggested donuts means that she's definitely not nutritionally trained.

When our grandson was 4 and granddaughter was 6, DH gave them a lesson as to the power of a gun.

He put a pumpkin on a post and shot it with the shotgun.

He showed them the gun cabinet, which is locked at all times. The ammunition is kept in a different location, under lock and key.

He explained to them what the guns were for, that they were dangerous weapons, that he used them for hunting, etc.

About three months later, our daughter called me to say that grandson had told the teacher and the other kids about Grandpa's gun lesson, and that G Pa had guns at his house. The teacher promptly called my daughter and asked her if she was aware of the gun "situation" at our house. DD thanked her and explained "the lesson." Now I didn't mind the teacher's concern, there could have been a problem and she was being cautious.

My grandkids live in the city of Dallas, in a neighborhood where guns are not the norm.....

Interesting, peoples reactions to things they aren't familiar with.

If you sat me down in the middle of Chicago or New York City,and said I had to live there, even in the poshest penthouse, I'd totallly freak out!!!!!

And donuts are sooooooooo much better than turkey. Hey- bring donuts fried in pork lard. hehehehehehehe Make sure you tell her too.

I missed it was breakfast, how about eggs and turkey sausage? Or is that on the naughty list too? Milk?

That teacher needs to get her head on straight. A kindergarten teacher from ANY culture has a responsibility to all of her kids to respect the other cultures of the children in her care! If she is Vegan or a member of PETA, Muslim, or Jew, Republican or Democrat, she still needs to respect the beliefs and lives of the children and families in her care and her behavior is NOT indicating that she is doing that. FOR SHAME! Donuts? What about the diabetic kids?

Do y'all have any idea how much I wish I could go up there with a big load of food than morning to Elevan's place so the two of us could cook up a great big country farm breakfast for the staff. Eggs, biscuits with sausage gravy, fresh milk, pork liver goetta, bacon, country potatoes (cooked in lard- the best way!) etc etc. She would be pretty hard pressed to tell those hard working people they can't have any and I would love to see her face when we showed up.......

I am thinking you could dress up the turkey as a big juicy steak or a black angus cow for your son's project. I have had a couple problems with our school, but so far nothing like that, our area is very agricultural based and a lot of kids out of the mountains, so not allowing the child to show a picture of the deer he shot would be out of the question, Infact, last year during thanksgiving week the kids had a reinactment of a hunting scene for the thanksgiving feast at school. I remember thinking that was really surprising, I don't know the details, I just remember being surprised they would allow anything with deer hunting.

edited to add: Oh wait, it can't get eaten.

I'd come along too. (I'd dose up on my pain meds and pig out, lol) Biscuits and gravy. bacon. potatoes. sigh.......I remember eating like that.

Focus.

I was fortunate enough to homeschool my boys all the way through, so I never had to deal with the school system for my own children. But I do have two much younger sisters and two much younger brothers and I dealt with some stuff for my mom when she was goin thru a hard time.

Many times people have looked at me and said HOW on earth could you handle homeschooling two boys for 13 years?!!! My response is "how on earth could you handle the public school system for 13 years without going to jail?!"

The more I hear, the more I have to say "hats off to you public school moms.........you have way more self control than I do!"

I am beating the school system has some rules in place on this very subject. I would check in with your county school board and find out more about what kind of values and personal beleifs a teacher is allowed to force onto their students or try to encourage or discourage.

You really need to send in turkey bacon and turkey sausage, and say innocently that you are sending in turkey disguised as "other things"
