This Mom Is Livid Because She Bought Her Kid $80 Worth Of Favors To Throw In A School Parade, But Their Teacher Gave It To Someone Else
There’s drama in the classroom, ya’ll! A parent bought their child favors to throw in a school parade, but found out their child’s teacher took away a portion of those favors to give to another student who ran out.
Here’s the full story in u/United-Gain1839′s own words: “My son is in second grade and I make sure he has everything he needs for school. Recently, they had a Mardi Gras parade, and I bought him $80 worth of throws for the parade so he will have stuff to throw throughout the whole ride, but that wasn’t the case.”
“A girl in his class threw all her stuff at once at the beginning of the parade and the teacher made my son share his stuff with her, and she threw his stuff all at once, leaving my son with nothing for the rest of the parade.”
“So I contacted the teacher and asked her why this happened and she said with a nasty attitude, ‘Well the girl had nothing left, so I was not going to let her go without, it’s not fair.’”
“Me: ‘But my son deserves to go without!’”
“Shouldn’t she buy extra instead of taking away from other children or am I overreacting?”
“She could’ve asked for donations. I do not know how to feel about the situation because I believe in sharing, but this wasn’t sharing this was taking away from my son.”
People in the comments were unanimously PISSED at the teacher. “This is unfair and unacceptable,” user Michmkjl wrote. “The teacher’s actions deprived your son of his belongings without consent.”
“Sharing should be voluntary and equitable, not forced. You’re right to be upset, and it’s important to address this matter to ensure it doesn’t happen again.”
