Yeah… Parents noticed something wrong too and he’s being checked.

I have things for students of all ages that for whatever reason need to destroy stuff, and they know I’ll give them the item they prefer no questions asked (but I’m always there to listen to them). Before I figured out why those students were behaving the way they were, lessons were miserable.

One day I offered a girl a tray of used paper sheets to shred instead of the textbook and it changed my life lmaoo

This kid is not destructive, so my usual tactics don’t work. The bitter spray did, tho.
