Mondays

After all that happened yesterday with my kid freaking out, not doing anything that was asked of him, and almost hitting several adults while screaming and shouting "Shut UP," the teacher's grand reply is: It is just Monday's. In all seriousness she felt that it was just the day, that all kids are like this every Monday. Which is baffling since this is the first time that he has acted this extreme.
I told her that I didn't really think that. I said it was most likely the fact that the boy is going through a shit load of things with his dad. It could be that that his dad yells at him, that his mom yells at his dad, that his dad yells at his mom, that he yells at both of them. It could also be that there is no flipping structure in the classroom and he is either bored out of his mind or frustrated because something is too hard.
So Next time I decide to, or you decide to not listen to anything, flail your arms around while a gut wrenching scream comes out of your mouth, and spend a good portion of the day in the break area on the floor just remember it is probably just a Monday.

this lady is getting her master's degree in education, which is another baffling aspect to this situation.
