What is one to do when a person decides it's a good idea to hold up 20+ kids from going inside after recess to discuss the dangers of playing with pollen? My solution? Stand back and shake my head in silence.
What was said: "Please, don't play with the pollen on the ground. Some children have very bad allergies to it and it can cause them to have breathing problems and itchy eyes so, please, leave it alone". Not bad advice if what was on the ground had actually been pollen and not a bunch of dead milkweed. I was unaware that pollen looked even remotely similar to dead milkweed. Good grief, Charlie Brown.
Oh. Also, I was told today how a student liked to watch "The Real Housewives of Orange Carpet" with their mother.
wait a second...so who PURPOSEFULLY plays with pollen in the first place??
