One of my students has ADHD off the friggin wall. He's 14, and he has no clue that anyone else in the world exists but him. He's usually so unbareable and I want to kick him out of the room because he's THAT bad (mind you they ALL have ADHD), but today, I was in his classroom talking to his teacher, and he was talking out loud half to himself and half at me and he said, 'When I heard we had a lady music teacher, I pictured an old lady, but you're the most beautiful woman in the school.' Haha, how can I not like him now! It was cute because he doens't even understand the concept of kissing butt. Those little boogers!

That's awful! Well, I reported a staff who was having too close a relationship with a female student. He would hug her, leave her things on his car, etc. And they didn't believe me. THEN they let him help her pack her bags when she left for another program! He was ALONE IN HER ROOM WITH HER WHERE THERE WERE NO CAMERAS! Finally he was fired for making comments about another students rear-end. Of course after that, they finally filed my incident report. I am just fed up. I mean, this wasn't a permanent thing for me, just a substitute for unpaid student teaching, but if I liked it enough, I surely would have stayed at least another year.
