That, along with "my teachers always said i wouldn't amount to anything." Seriously, I've been in some -rough- public schools with literal criminals, and never once heard a teacher come close to saying something like that.
- thanksDr 8y agoOn the last day of 6th grade public school, my teacher pulled me aside in his very final moment of power over me to say exactly this. He made it quite longwinded. This wasn't a rough school - I was in a suburban gifted program.
- nitrogen 8y agoIt must be the middle of the road suburban public schools with gifted programs where this is a thing, because I (indirectly) heard the same thing at high school.
- dvtrn 8y agoLower-ghetto public school with a half functioning kitchen, got called "ugly" and told to sit outside by my 5th grade art teacher. She continued working there for 6 more years before taking on a Director-role at the local community college, interestingly. Joke was on her though, because my mother thinks I'm quite handsome heh. /adds his card neatly to the anecdote pile
- chasd00 8y agoheh my friend had a HS teacher that stapled taco bell job applications to every F grade. that's pretty harsh.
