Child Development- 1st Period- Class #13

[slapbetcommish.livejournal.com]

The students coming to class today would find their teacher a little on the late side.

And when she did show (don't even try enacting the five minute rule), she was wordless, dancing the hula to some imaginary music, complete with the outfit.

And then, a couple minutes in, it wore off.

Lily stared at the class, her mouth open in a wide embarrassed "O", and finally rallied, clapping her hands together. "SO. We were going to talk about problems in school today. I... seem to have left my handouts and everything at my apartment somehow. Can't imagine why. So I'd like you all to pair up and discuss a problem a school-age child might have in school and how you would go about dealing with it. And then when you're done... get a stuffed animal from the toy box and cuddle it."

"Does that happen?" Triela asked, honestly curious.

"yeah," Claire said. "Kids are brutal if you don't fit in."

"So what would you do," Triela asked with a frown. "It's not like you can threaten them, right?" Because, sadly, sometimes violence wasn't the answer.

"I wish," Claire said. "My mom always told me to just walk away, 'cause if you react that's giving them what they want. Plus, if you hit people you get epic detention."

"Does that work?" Triela sounded doubtful of that.

Claire shrugged. "It can if you make it seem like you just don't care."

"I'll remember that," Triela nodded, making a mental note.
