3 Boys one can of Chew

Let me tell you sometimes I think my student think I am dumb, blind and deaf. Case in point.....Jimmy comes up to my desk to ask me if he can go to the bathroom, as he's making his request I notice some black nasty junk sticking to his teeth. Having my suspicions I tell him to pull his lip down so I can see whats on his teeth. There is it is a big chaw of chewing tobacco.

Busted....So Jimmy what's that nasty stuff you got stuffed in your lip?? That's when the game begins....the You're a crazy Bitch and I am going to deny this until my death game. Of course he knows he's busted so what does he do? Keeps saying nothing is in his mouth while he awkwardly and obviously tries to hide the evidence. Of course he knows the gigs up and decides that the only way out of this one is to........wait for it......swallow the evidence. That's right he swallowed that big old juicy wad of chew, even though I told him he'd regret it. Seriously I wante to puke just watching him swallow it, of course he continues to deny he had it in his mouth as the evidence is sticking all over his tongue and teeth as he proclaims his innocence.

Of course this kid thinks....no evidence , no crime. Yeah right....and basically I'm sitting in the principals office with the police officer, and the kid an hour later as he blatantly tells them I am a liar and I'm out to get him suspended because I hate him......I am sure you can imagine how far that got him and within about 15 minutes the kid was singing like a canary ratting out two more of my students and I got a needed vacation from the three of them a they were suspended for 10 days and fined a hefty $500. Honestly I hope this is lesson to him that well one, he's terrible at concealing his illegal actions and covering his tracks , two he's a terrible liar, and three I am once and for all not as stupid, blind and deaf as he once thought......point Kat

  2. I feel old now. What happened to the good ol' days when you snuck off during lunch to grab a smoke? Kinda scary how much kids are trying to get away with now.

  3. Oh and I totally agree with Doug...fines don't mean a whole lot to kids. When I got busted smoking by the cops, the judge made me write a 500 word paper on why smoking is bad. Didn't make me stop smoking, but sure did screw up my summer for a week or two!

  6. @ doug, the ticket is an automatic, since it's illegal for them to possess the can of tobacco they have to be "charged" we have a police officer on staff, he has to file charges
    But I agree that community service would be better but that's up to the judge to assign

  10. I have an internship working with adolescents who are on probation or have some intense reason to be in rehab, for weed and sometimes harder drugs like heroin and cocaine. And they think they can pull the wool over our eyes, and we'll be none the wiser. Of course, they are wrong. You can't sit in the residential center's bathroom and smoke pot and not get caught by the variety of staff passing by during the day, including interns, techs, and counselors.....d'oh!
