Teacher's Pet (not now) - Rhubarb - 07-10-2011
My boss's wife is a teacher to children 7 to 8 years old. We know she is very popular, the children come into the shop and tell us.
She is totally barmy and we can see why the children take to her- even the problem ones. Example, during Science week she went to school dressed like a mad professor, white coat, red fuzzy wig and big round glasses, every day.
So she calls to say she is home from school and tells her husband she had an incident that day. He had to tell us as soon as she hung up
One of the boys (who is a bit of an handful) asked if he could stand up and tell the class something- Tracy said that was ok, since often a child has something to say- new baby brother, a puppy or a special trip.
He said 'Today I passed Mrs Bryant's house on my way to my granny's at quarter past 7 this morning. I saw her in her lounge playing golf!'
Just as he was about to sit down he stopped and came back to the front of the class.
'And she was still in her pyjamas'
Tracy wanted to know should she invest in net curtains or just be relieved she was in her PJ's.
Honestly :doh2: ever since David bought her a golf class as a present she hasn't stopped playing.

At least it was only golf and not doing the houseboy.

LOL!
Man, what a way to embarrass the teacher!
At least he didn't do what my little brother did in the first grade! Teacher was wearing an armless (no sleeve) dress and he points to the area behind her breast and shouts, "Look at those tits!"
A letter was sent home and the teacher wore sleeves from that day until graduation.

Nothing appears to faze Tracy, and she has had some really funny stories and some really sad ones too of kids who are just so neglected.
She said once she visited a family because the boy was struggling at school and needed to 'see' for herself the problem. Lovely house and parents, all the hi-tech TV etc. The problem- they didn't have a scrap of furniture, or any books, magazines or even proper food in the house. They lived on take-a-ways.

Gail said something similar to some of the kids she used to care for when she was doing child minding for a living. She was to prepare dinner for these kids and they refused to eat anything home made. All they wanted to eat was crap or take out.
I remember when getting take out or going to a restaurant was a treat and not the norm.
