beat them all!!

two days ago, a parent came by the school that all the teachers have been trying to get ahold of, because her child is a crazy little bastard. i mean, he's horrible. all the time. remember the kid i said kept getting into fights? that's him.
so she heard all this from us, and got really angry and told him all kinds of things, like if she had a belt on, she'd take him into the bathroom right then and tear his ass up. we teachers were all really happy to hear this, because he deserves it. she also gave me her phone number so that if he gives me any more trouble i can call her.
today, he gave me trouble, so i told him to go turn his card over (classroom discipline system made cute for kids). on his way back, i heard him call a girl "fat cheeks". now, maybe this girl has fat cheeks, and maybe she said something bad to him, but i didn't hear it and i can't let kids be called those kinds of things in my classroom. plus, this on top of everything else he'd been doing pissed me off, so i called his house. i spoke to his father, who then told me that he didn't think that "fat cheeks" was bad, and the boy could have been talking about anything, so why would i assume the kid meant something bad and that if we were going to call him it should be about something serious. i told him i did think it was serious and if it were up to me, i'd suspend him for it, but it's not up to me. he said he was glad it wasn't up to me because if i tried to suspend him for insulting another child he'd have to contest it.
then later, his mother called back about it and she also said that she didn't think it was bad of her son to call a girl "fat cheeks".
i now know what the hell is wrong with "davonta". it's a relief because i've been wondering what could possibly be that kid's major malfunction. now i know.

A. Bring a camaro into class, do big smoky burnouts every hour on the hour while spewing fire from your headers.

b. your luckyl blogger was broken this morning, after you slanderized my rhyming know how.
Maybe when you can name all the members of the wu-tang clan in order... you can step to my rhymes.

Don't let those rat bastards get to you, and I'm not talking about the kids! I don't know why parents in the african american community refuse to disclipline their children. Bill Cosby has been scrutinized for his beliefs on this issue, I dont know why it is so difficult for some people take responsibility for their own children and their actions.

thanks jorge. i need all the affirmation i can get after that. i'm still fuming, and it makes me wonder whether or not i'm crazy for thinking it's a bad thing to say such things in school.
