When I was in school(senior year) I had this favorite pair of pants that I seriously wore everyday(they had cute little pandas printed on them). I washed them every night. One of my teachers noticed and alerted the principal that my home may not be a suitable living environment. They called me in and questioned me about my pants "does your mom not have enough money to buy you more pants?..if money is an issue the school has programs to help with this" I told them I just really liked my pants and they were clean. They didn't believe me and said wearing the same clothes is a hygienical problem. My mom had to come to school and explain that I actually owned about 20 pairs of pants but these were my fav. And I did in fact wash them every night.
My school did something similar cause I wore some jeans that had a pattern on them and were a color besides denim blue and they called my mom and accussed her of not buying me regular clothes and sending me to school in pajamas.
Jeez. Couldn't they have felt them to see they weren't jammies? Maybe that falls under the no touching rules. It's annoying but at the same time it's good that they care(about the clothes)
Being a girl when I find pants I love I buy copies of the same pair and switch them out everyday. When I was in jrhigh i had a teacher who was a nosey bitch. One day she "drops" a permanent marker by my chair and says o I will get it. Than stands up and walks off. At home I see she marked my pants by my ankle. So next day I wear an identical pair to purely catch if she is doing this on purpose. And sure fucking enough. She "drops" a folder taking a minute than comes up. She was looking for the mark.
After class I waited to talk to her. I told her I know what she did and I own 5 pairs of the same jeans. I also said I own 10 pairs of the same bra than I showed my bra strap on my sholder and said do you want to mark this to to see if I change it daily as well? I told her how dare she do that it is none of her business. I even started to fake cry and said I felt violated and felt maybe I should tell my mom and have the teacher reported. She never bothered me again after that.
Marking up your pants is a crappy thing to do but IMO looking out for students is a teachers business. They need to make sure kids are being taken care of..your teacher just went about it the wrong way
A teacher should look out for her students. A good teacher would of pulled me in after class with no one around and asked about my clothes. A good teacher wouldn't single me out almost everyday always assuming I was trash since she knew I had 2 working parents and 5 brothers. The first day of school she made us stand up say what our parents did, how many siblings we have, what kind of house we live in, and other personal questions. After that ANYONE who made it seem they were poor she treated like dirt.
See I was in a rich neighborhood jrhigh because this school had a Dyslexia program. So I traveled 2 hours there and 2 hours back by bus to get there.
This teacher was a bitch and what she pulled was the final straw with me. I really had enough.
This is the same teacher who if you didn't have a pen to write with or paper or forgot your book no warning just sent you to ISS.
I had a teacher like that. He was my history and PE teacher. He singled out certain students for ridiculous reasons, me being one of them. If you didn't have something he sent you to ISS. One day in PE he sent me to ISS for being on my period :^/ I told the principal that it was a BS reason and they told me I must have been sassing him(which I wasn't)
