How the hell did the teacher or school staff tolerate this lmao. My teacher would have told him to shut up the the second day and give a suspension the third day.

I think acting out is more accepted if it’s harmless.

I remember kids being sent home for dyed hair in middle school…because it was “distracting”.

All those dumb fucks retired and now acting out is tolerated with nuance.

It’s also possible he’s a really good student during class so his “warm up” act out is overlooked because it’s actually pretty funny to hype up a class a lot of people think of as “nerdy”

It’s probably a private school with absurd tuition

That's a drastic assumption. We had tons of teachers that encouraged students to get hyped up like this. Obviously there's a line, but it was a public school and lots of students would act out similarly, scream-asking how the teacher was. Not every public school teacher has a stick up their ass.

I was actually basing it more on price of his outfits and classroom size

Do you think all public schools are filled with people wearing burlap sacks and being taught in broom closets?

This is almost certainly the case. If this kid is acting this crazy for the rest of class, no way he is allowed to do this much longer. If this is simply his entrance, and is otherwise chill and respectful the rest of class, it becomes endearing to the teacher.

It seems to lighten the mood for some

As a teacher, I’d join in. Hyping himself, me and the class up is a great start. Gotta remember the reason of school is to learn and love learning. You have to enjoy learning new things rather than what the topic is. Even a boring topic could be made fun if there’s hype to it.

Totally agree! I was never so great at chemistry & physics grade wise in high school, but they were still two of my favorite subjects. I loved the topics themselves a lot (still do to this day).

I would consider that harmless like I said.

Teacher here. No. This is not allowed. I don’t need the class hyped up thank you.

Also a teacher myself, and I would definitely allow this if it was the only "annoying" thing the kid was doing. It's harmless, adds a bit of fun to the start of class, and doesn't hurt anyone. Provided he wasn't acting out for the rest of the class, I don't see a problem here.

Hell, I have a student who comes in, every day, with a new "question of the day." Friday's was "Mr. Faustus, would you rather lose your ability to taste things or smell things?" We spent a few minutes at the beginning of class discussing it, then I went on with Shakespeare.

Being a teacher does not mean being incapable of letting kids have a bit of fun.

This is how I prefer to parent.

Had so many stupid rules as a kid, so you learn to just ignore a ton of rules, if they don't mean anything why bother following them?

As a parent, I don't make pointless rules. If he's acting out, it isn't disrupting class, he isn't hurting anyone, then why start an issue over it?

Its inherited parenting methods from older generations that hate fun because that’s how you die. Work and be super serious types and occasionally say “look out for this guy”.

I was told to be quiet and in trouble a lot for not being quiet so this resonates a bit too much with me.

Yea they seem even supportive, he seems dedicated to doing it let him do his thing.
