[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh give it a rest. Don't you remember your teacher making you get up to practice a fire drill and saying "if this was the real drill, we would file out of the classroom now"?
It sounds like the class was unruly ans he was impressing upon them that when the class is unruly its a danger because they couldn't even get it together in an emergency.
In our day, the unruly kids got to sit in the corner. Somehow we survived.
Teachers have enough to deal with. Your precious darling having to practice a drill isn't cause for you to get your hackles up. You should be glad the teacher is trying.

In our day, if we misbehaved we'd get a up-close inspection of the principal's paddle. Not sure I want to go back to "in our day".[/quote]

DP. No, but we've gone so far the other way that parents are "livid" and want to meet with administration over students going through safety drills. [/quote]

This was NOT a safety drill. This was a PE teacher making up his own protocols and exploiting a safety drill. [/quote]
