46 years ago my 5th grade teacher took away my pocket watch that I inherited from my Grandfather and never gave it back. This made me think of that. Oh well I don’t hold it against him.

Fritzi’s planning to move on that Sugar Daddy.

Oh boy, not this canard again. Who will be the first to whine about how much athletes make?

Maybe he is the one who sold Sluggo that “Woody Woodpecker” comic book that he was reading last month…

Yes, if they confiscate anything that is not harmful or illegal, they should return them to the students after class. Not keep them. Should be manditory they return them.

I lost a friend’s football this way in elementary school.

Hmmm – take in things you no longer WANT – save a trip to recycle.

I remember the time my bro took my dads brand new pocket knife to Kindergarten. My bro complains he can still feel that spanking

That’s similar to the Archie comic last week.

One wonders what Fritzi is thinking!

now that’s true, my 1st grade teacher took away my toy cards and never gave it back.

No, they need jail sentences. Theft is theft. Why should we pay them more to rob our children blind. Teacher took my daughter’s cell phone earlier this year. Should she have had in class? No. But the teacher has no right to confiscate something that I paid for. The teacher did not return the item to my daughter after school. Told her that her parents would have to pick it up. It was Friday. My daughter was without her cell phone the entire weekend. I told the teacher if she pulled a stunt like that again I would file charges. Then I deactivated the phone for 2 weeks as punishment to my daughter for taking it to class in the first place. Funny thing, my daughter wasn’t using the phone when it was confiscated. It was in her pocket. The display activated and could be seen through her pocket. My other question is why was the teacher looking at my daughter’s pocket in the first place. Had the teacher been male I would have had her fired. I have no simpathy for these teachers. Most of whom, in the words of Carl the Janitor “took a teaching position, ‘cause you thought it’d be fun, right? Thought you could have summer vacations off…and then you found out it was actually work…and that really bummed you out.” They need tio stop taking out their frustations on our kids. Growing up is hard enough without having to deal with a constant deluge of crap from on high. Kids have their entire working lives to get crap poured on them.
