Yes! Our playground at my private school in the 80's would be considered a death trap these days. And it was FUN! This was on the older kids playground (4th - 6th). We had two 3 level (3 stories) wooden structure connected by a rubber vehicle tire bridge. There were stairs and ladders to get up and down and if you wanted to get down to the sand levem from the 3rd or 2nd level quickly, you rode down the fireman's pole! Fun! The younger kids playground had the old school mary go round, metal slide, metal geodesic climbing structure and other things that were super fun but wouldn't be seen on playgrounds these days. I'm glad I was born in 1974! These kids today have no clue.

When I was in eight grade, we kept receiving bomb threats in the bathrooms and they could figure out who was writing them. So they took extreme measures. They locked all the bathrooms except for the ones across from the Principal's office. They also had them monitored and made us sign in, also go in one by one. During the 5 mins in between classes, they locked those bathrooms as well. One day during the 5 min in between classes, a student had to go. Well the student took it upon himself to go right there in the hallway right in front of the bathrooms, in front of the hall monitors and in front of all the students. As disgusting as it was, we were all kind of proud that somebody finally stood up in protest.

Two crazy rules my daughters had at their schools: 1. My daughter was in 3rd, I taught her how to write her name in cursive. Which I found out later wasn't allowed and she could get suspended for doing so. 2. When my oldest daughter was in 6th grade, she was required to shower in a communal shower with the other girls. If she didn't shower with them, she would get an F in P.E. She took the F.

We had a communal shower in our locker room - just like shown in the movie "Carrie". I was in high school in 88/89 - 91/92. We didn't think anything of it because it's just how it was and we were all girls. I would have preferred a private shower, though. The private school I attended in elementary school has a middle and upper school and their locker room had private showers which we were able to use when we had out swimming unit in gym class.

@@Flamsterette do you realize grammar "Nazi" is actually a mental disorder? When kids learn grammar it takes a huge portion of the brain's capacity. After they learn grammar, right or wrong, it becomes "automatic" like walking. This frees up the brain to learn productive and survival skills. You, however, are stuck in the grammar learning phase where you have very limited brain capacity. In other words grammar is all you know. That's why it bothers you so bad. Normal people are intelligent enough to understand mistakes in grammar without giving it a second thought. You should go see a psychiatrist. They can help.

Sure. If you smile even when you are sad. Then you can stop knowing how to not smile. And later forget to even acknowledge that feeling in yourself. Which can give you REALLY big problems later in life. Like personal disorders and depressions. I can testify on that. at Age 30 I am finaly starting to let myself not please others and smile when hurt. And have had a cronicle depression for many years.. Others: "Look at that pretty little smile.. You are always sooo happy. It's so wonderful.." You in your head: "I have a sea of tears inside. How am I ever gonna feel good again."

For many of these rules and stupid local laws/ordnances, some joker gets the idea of "this should be a law" and it gets made. As for stupid rules like not using red to grade papers, we need to stop worrying about hurting kids feeling and start teaching them that real life doesn't care about their feelings. Many of the riots we've been dealing with over the last few years is that people aren't learning how to deal with adversity and disagreement.

But we also had to move it all when they were going to inspect because it was against the rules to use other lockers. But when my first period is in the A building and my second is on the other end, upstairs of the main building, you can't hit the locker in the B hall and get there in time.

When I was in High School during the 1980s some of the school rules were out of this world. We had such rules as,,,,,, NO toilet time during any lesson NO more than three people in the toilets at any one time. You had to stand EVERYTIME a teacher walked into the classroom. And my favourite of all time.... Because the High School I went to was an all boys school there was a rule stating that any pupil found looking at a female teacher for too long would be sent to the head of year to explain themselves if said teacher felt uneasy about the look. 👩🏫👀😍😘 There were many more stupid rules. EDIT: (The number one spot). Being told by a school and/or teacher that you can't go to the toilet is, 1, out of order. 2, (as you said) dangerous & 3, against your human rights. If a teacher tells you (after you have politely seeked permission) that you can't go you are FULLY entitled to walk out the classroom without being punished. OR you can sit there & wet yourself then sue the school AND the teacher.

I was always against school. I hated it, I always thought, and still do to this day, of it as being like prison. Its essentially en indoctrination centre, not a centre for learning. The conditions at school are very unfavourable for learning. Now its important to have a facility with a structured framework so as to teach discipline and structure, but not at the expense of a child's individuality. For instance, I agreed with school uniforms. A school should be ideally a centre for LEARNING, not a fashion show, and being obligated to wear a uniform is actually very practical. When I was in private school and had to wear a uniform, it was great. The uniforms themselves were nothing impressive, but every single morning before school, I always knew what to wear, so it was quick, easy, simple, efficient and practical. Also, other kids cannot laugh at you for what you are wearing, as they wear the same shit. I think ALL schools should have uniforms, BUT, they should also let students be themselves and adapt their teaching methods to how each student learns. The TRUE responsibility of a teacher is NOT to teach subject matter itself, but to teach students on how to teach THEMSELVES subject matter. At the end of the day, the student should be its own best teacher. If a student is obsessed with hockey, more gym class with a focus on hockey, if a student is obsessed with Math, more math classes, if a student is obsessed with performing arts, more drama or music classes, and so on.

My son's kindergarten teacher had a major issue with kids needing to go to the bathroom. If any of her students needed to go between bathroom breaks, she would make them hold it and told them they should have went during the last break. Found out later that practically every child in her class had on at least one occasion (in most cases 2 or 3 times) wet themselves because she wouldn't let them use the bathroom outside of scheduled bathroom breaks. Parents would then either bring them a change of clothes or just pick them up. Then they would have to sit in the office where everyone could see them in their wet pants. Thankfully last we heard she no longer teaches children and was in fact in jail.

Seriously, had to go to court. Some really upstanding parents with really upstanding kids I knew went through this because the student had a chronic illness, depression issues, or totally legitimate reasons for being out of school.

With 24 I just wanted to say that I agree with the holding back part . I believe that it’s absolutely perfectly fine to hold a child back if they aren’t meeting the level that someone their age is suppose to. I my self should have been held back but for the dumb rule that no child gets left behind I seriously had a much harder time trying to grasp the information and material that was being provided with the next grade simply becuase I barely knew/grasped/understood the previous grade’s material let alone trying to learn something new that actually stemmed off of what was taught the previous year . So for a child who frankly doesn’t care enough to do the work that is provided ( like homework and studying which is what helps you to learn the information and material that will benefit you for years to come ) like they should and then they get the marks for no reason other than “no one wants to make the poor thing cry “ then come the next school year that same kid is going to get screwed over 10x as badly as the previous year and when they hit college then they will not last and will be kicked out for failing to meet the requirements. So you say that holding a child back is horrible and unnecessary well I tell you from personal experience it’s frankly the only thing that is actually going to work in their favor .

Instead, it completely *DESTROYS* their self-esteem, their confidence and makes them statistically more likely to drop out of high school and to have other long-term effects. It can also have a negative impact on a child's social and emotional development. Grade-repeating is something I *STRONGLY* oppose. It's an outdated practice that shouldn't be used anymore. There are better ways to help a child struggling in school whether it be socially and or academically.

I fought this guy as hard as I could, save kicking his ass. He ended up winning and he enjoyed gloating about it. I got fired about a week later due to "budget cuts".

We had two 3 level (3 stories) wooden structure connected by a rubber vehicle tire bridge. There were stairs and ladders to get up and down and if you wanted to get down to the sand levem from the 3rd or 2nd level quickly, you rode down the fireman's pole! Fun! The younger kids playground had the old school mary go round, metal slide, metal geodesic climbing structure and other things that were super fun but wouldn't be seen on playgrounds these days. I'm glad I was born in 1974! These kids today have no clue.

They locked all the bathrooms except for the ones across from the Principal's office. They also had them monitored and made us sign in, also go in one by one. During the 5 mins in between classes, they locked those bathrooms as well. One day during the 5 min in between classes, a student had to go. Well the student took it upon himself to go right there in the hallway right in front of the bathrooms, in front of the hall monitors and in front of all the students. As disgusting as it was, we were all kind of proud that somebody finally stood up in protest.
Two crazy rules my daughters had at their schools: 1. My daughter was in 3rd, I taught her how to write her name in cursive. Which I found out later wasn't allowed and she could get suspended for doing so. 2. When my oldest daughter was in 6th grade, she was required to shower in a communal shower with the other girls. If she didn't shower with them, she would get an F in P.E. She took the F.

You, however, are stuck in the grammar learning phase where you have very limited brain capacity. In other words grammar is all you know. That's why it bothers you so bad.

One time my sophomore year of High School, I just barely got to bio class on time (I think actually was like 30 seconds late) and as I sat down I realized I forgot my bio class supplies (textbook, binder). I asked the teacher if I could step out and get my stuff from my locker (which was legit right across the hallway) and while he was ok with it some student was like "OH COME ON!" Teacher IMMEDIATELY shouted at him to shut up, followed with "His locker is right across the hall, dude!"
This may be a pair of unpopular opinions: I see nothing wrong with school uniforms. Many work places have strict dress codes and some clothing is used as gang signs. If you "finish" all of your work in study hall, that does not mean that you should be able to disturb other people. When I was in high school, my hearing was as sharp as could be, thus I heard EVERYTHING.
Since my locker was so far away from all my classes and I had 4 minutes between classes, I never used my locker, I kept everything in a drawstring bag because backpacks are banned for wearing to your classes because apparently you can hide a gun in a backpack but not a drawstring bag according to whoever made that rule, we also couldn't wear our winter jackets to class and we had to leave them in our locker, but I didn't use my locker so I never wore a winter jacket to school, and I live in Buffalo where it easily gets down below 20 degrees in the winter and sometimes below 10

Agree but, some parents are so unworthy of having kids that they won't bother to buy a spare set OR do the laundry (regardless of how wealthy in fact) and as a result, kids going through puberty will smell big time after wearing the same outfit for a whole week. It happened in my class and we all felt sorry for the dude.
My middle and highschool had a dress in gender appropriate clothing rule. (This was torture as I'm trans)
that last rule is truth: in 5th grade i was doing physical therapy after my foot got sprained in a tiny pothole on my way to catch the bus, so i told my therapist i needed to go to bathroom she said no your almost done... i then told her i take medication that makes me loose extra water in my body making me need to go more... she looked at me like i was nuts and after i finished i peed my pants from doing sit ups and got in trouble for it saying i acted like a toddler and act maturely... my mom then went straight to principal to explain my medication and why i need more breaks to go if i need to...
We didn’t get detention, but chewing gum was “banned in school” (you would be told to spit it out if caught chewing it)

AKA Reminds Me Of "The Public Displays Of Affection" Terminology When I Attended School!
When I was in High School during the 1980s some of the school rules were out of this world. We had such rules as,,,,,, NO toilet time during any lesson NO more than three people in the toilets at any one time. You had to stand EVERYTIME a teacher walked into the classroom. And my favourite of all time.... Because the High School I went to was an all boys school there was a rule stating that any pupil found looking at a female teacher for too long would be sent to the head of year to explain themselves if said teacher felt uneasy about the look. 👩🏫👀😍😘 There were many more stupid rules. EDIT: (The number one spot). Being told by a school and/or teacher that you can't go to the toilet is, 1, out of order. 2, (as you said) dangerous & 3, against your human rights. If a teacher tells you (after you have politely seeked permission) that you can't go you are FULLY entitled to walk out the classroom without being punished. OR you can sit there & wet yourself then sue the school AND the teacher.

I am an elementary and preschool teacher. In my 20 plus years of teaching, the majority of teachers that I have encountered are exactly the kinds of teachers that I strive not to be. I actually talk about it in my standup act. It drives me nuts when I hear frumpy, sun hat wearing polyester clad women yell at kids on the playground who go head first down the slide or swing on their bellies. "ON YER POCKETS!! GO DOWN THE SLIDE ON YER POCKETS!!" They always sound like angry prison wardens from Minnesota.

That is why I was glad my school never had a bathroom past (I live in New Zealand) instead you could go multiple times a day. If multiple people went to the bathroom at once you might have been asked to wait though.
I was always against school. I hated it, I always thought, and still do to this day, of it as being like prison. Its essentially en indoctrination centre, not a centre for learning. The conditions at school are very unfavourable for learning. Now its important to have a facility with a structured framework so as to teach discipline and structure, but not at the expense of a child's individuality. For instance, I agreed with school uniforms. A school should be ideally a centre for LEARNING, not a fashion show, and being obligated to wear a uniform is actually very practical. When I was in private school and had to wear a uniform, it was great. The uniforms themselves were nothing impressive, but every single morning before school, I always knew what to wear, so it was quick, easy, simple, efficient and practical. Also, other kids cannot laugh at you for what you are wearing, as they wear the same shit. I think ALL schools should have uniforms, BUT, they should also let students be themselves and adapt their teaching methods to how each student learns. The TRUE responsibility of a teacher is NOT to teach subject matter itself, but to teach students on how to teach THEMSELVES subject matter. At the end of the day, the student should be its own best teacher. If a student is obsessed with hockey, more gym class with a focus on hockey, if a student is obsessed with Math, more math classes, if a student is obsessed with performing arts, more drama or music classes, and so on.
My son's kindergarten teacher had a major issue with kids needing to go to the bathroom. If any of her students needed to go between bathroom breaks, she would make them hold it and told them they should have went during the last break. Found out later that practically every child in her class had on at least one occasion (in most cases 2 or 3 times) wet themselves because she wouldn't let them use the bathroom outside of scheduled bathroom breaks. Parents would then either bring them a change of clothes or just pick them up. Then they would have to sit in the office where everyone could see them in their wet pants. Thankfully last we heard she no longer teaches children and was in fact in jail.

I had a best friend in school (oh those many years ago!). He's still my best friend today!
I got in trouble in 3rd grade (early 1990s) for eating the core of an apple. My dad used to do it to be funny, so I asked the kids around me if they dared me to. They said yes, so I did. One kid did that "Oooo [I'm telling]" kind of thing and ran to tell the teacher. I was then fussed at by the teacher and told I could die and was made to go stand by the fence (that school's version of time out when spending time outside). Even in 3rd grade as I cried by the fence I thought, "So you're fine with me dying over here by the fence?!". My parents were livid and made sure the principal knew it.
Being held back is better than graduating without skills.
I can't say that I agree with you on the being on time for school issue. First, a lot of schools base their hours around parental work hours to give parents time to get to work after driving their children to school but also, at some point, kids have to realize that as adults, they aren't going to get a pass for being chronically late to work. Some workplaces are more lax about this than others but I don't know what to say on that one.
Okay, I graduated high school in 1964, so school was a long time ago. The most ridiculous rule I ever encountered was being forbidden to look ahead in our reading or music books, which I took as a challenge to do exactly that. At least I had encyclopedias to read at home after being bored out of my skull all day. And the bit about chewing gum existed in my day, too. I could understand the teachers' point of view if they had to stare at kids who chewed with their mouths open, but come on. And my the time I was in junior high I was sneaking candy in class.

In their earlier years they'll think of it as so but when they get to college or higher forms of learning THEY'LL thank that punishment. EVEN uniforms, it's easier to be wearing uniform and picking any clothes. PEOPLE WOULD HAVE TROUBLE PICKING CLOTHES cause in puberty WE WANT TO IMPRESS people ANOTHER THING!

Seriously.

In highschool class started at 7:20 I woke up at 5:45 giving me an hour before having to get ready. Which was just socks shoes shirt backpack teeth hair out the door.. of course I got a ride and was only a mile away so it was still half hour walk. Also my lunch was either 1130-1200 or 1200-1230 But now I have lunch at 1300. Also evening showers would help in the morning. And if you have to wash your hair and be done with it. Oh and in my highschool gum was okay just don't be loud or disruptive. Put In the carpet etc. And for me 5 minutes was plenty of time to get from one end of the school to the other Even enough time to go to the bathroom so locker shouldn't be a problem. Unless opposite direction. Which then first half lunch which I at within 5-10 minutes locker switch books. Passing time should be to get from point A to point B not chatting with your friends.

My high school was over a mile in circumference, with about 1/3 mile from the last classroom on the second floor of the annex to the trailer classrooms at the other end of campus. We had 7 minutes, but also about 2500 students, so it could take a while. I used to carry 2 backpacks. One for 1st and 2nd period, one for 3rd and 4th, because we had 15 minutes between 2nd and 3rd periods.

Absences need to be handled differently at certain schools. In some places I lived if a child was absent more than so many days they were reported to DHHS and the parents actually had to go to court to defend their children's absences which actually took time off away from parents in the workplace and could harm their reputation. Seriously, had to go to court. Some really upstanding parents with really upstanding kids I knew went through this because the student had a chronic illness, depression issues, or totally legitimate reasons for being out of school. It was insane.

With 24 I just wanted to say that I agree with the holding back part . I believe that it’s absolutely perfectly fine to hold a child back if they aren’t meeting the level that someone their age is suppose to. I my self should have been held back but for the dumb rule that no child gets left behind I seriously had a much harder time trying to grasp the information and material that was being provided with the next grade simply becuase I barely knew/grasped/understood the previous grade’s material let alone trying to learn something new that actually stemmed off of what was taught the previous year . So for a child who frankly doesn’t care enough to do the work that is provided ( like homework and studying which is what helps you to learn the information and material that will benefit you for years to come ) like they should and then they get the marks for no reason other than “no one wants to make the poor thing cry “ then come the next school year that same kid is going to get screwed over 10x as badly as the previous year and when they hit college then they will not last and will be kicked out for failing to meet the requirements. So you say that holding a child back is horrible and unnecessary well I tell you from personal experience it’s frankly the only thing that is actually going to work in their favor .

I beg your pardon. I was held back twice in my life. Because of undiagnosed autism disorder and I was having a hard time Hollywood not assigned me extra help so I was held back in school for 2 years the amount of bullying and just crap I dealt with it because of the stupid teacher not listening to understanding that I needed extra support I went through almost 10 years of just trauma and abuse. The other kids parents would not let them hang out with me because I was considered A retard and they thought it would rub off me to there kids. So no holding back is a cruel and actually a kind of sick way to pretend you're helping a kid out
I am Christian, and I used to work with a Jewish lady. She and I office together, and we would listen to music. I asked her if she would mind if we listened to Christmas music, and she said no, as long as I explain why we called it Christmas dinner, when we eat it in the middle of the day. That was kind of a fun compromise. I also got some Jewish Hanukkah drinks, braided bread etc. I said Jewish Hanukkah treats.
The worst rule at my high school was the zero tolerance policy. All violence was punished exactly the same, regardless of circumstances, so even if some asshole attacked you, you'd get the same suspension and ticket that he did if you hit him back ONCE. Not surprisingly, all that accomplished was to encourage bullies, who never cared about rules in the first place, and now knew that their victims would be more afraid to defend themselves.

No, God save us. Try teaching when no one is listening or working or anything....why, they are on their phone. If a cell phone is more important than an education...then keep them home and let them play on their phone.
Although I agree the majority on this list are borderline ridiculous, none of them make me more...opinionated, than the act of grade-repeating. Holding a child back does NOT help them. Instead, it completely *DESTROYS* their self-esteem, their confidence and makes them statistically more likely to drop out of high school and to have other long-term effects. It can also have a negative impact on a child's social and emotional development. Grade-repeating is something I *STRONGLY* oppose. It's an outdated practice that shouldn't be used anymore. There are better ways to help a child struggling in school whether it be socially and or academically.

Dear Mike, first time I said Happy Holidays was my last. I was visiting a friend who is Jewish. His father explained he wants to be wished a Merry Christmas and he looks forward to withing me a Happy Hanukkah. He wants to know, with my belief, I want him to be blessed. The other way around, he wants me to understand he wishes me his best wishes, according to his beliefs.

Never seen a cell-phone used the right way in class. In college, had a guy throw fit when he was asked to bring his cell-phone to the teachers desk because he was texting instead of listening to the lecture. He said no, quit the class and never came back. Real mature.
I was a preK teacher at a public school a few years ago. The principal decided to put one of my students (a five year old girl with FAS) into a 3 day, in-school detention, which was a room with no windows, there was no talking, they had worksheets to do all day and the only time they could leave the room was to use the restroom or get their meals, which they brought back to the room. I fought this guy as hard as I could, save kicking his ass. He ended up winning and he enjoyed gloating about it. I got fired about a week later due to "budget cuts". He ended up getting fired later on too. I was asked to come back but I found another job that paid much much more with less stress.

Also cell phones were 100% VERBOTEN in school (well during class and at lunch and stuff) my Freshman and Sophomore years. Starting my junior year, they allowed people to have their phones out during lunch, between classes, and one math teacher allowed them as calculators during class but she personally verified that they were on airplane mode. PS: That math teacher didn't allow phones as calculators during tests, only during regular class time.
I was forced to shave in 8th grade. When I began high school I had a full beard. In 11th grade (1994) a teacher asked me in the halls between classes "When was I going to take the wild animal off my face?" I responded with "When your wife goes home". All the kids in ear shot began laughing. The baby faced teacher stopped bothering me about it.
I have a sister who is quite a bit younger than me. When the elementary school shootings started, her own elementary school decided that in order to defend themselves, each child needed to bring a can (soup, green beans, etc) to THROW AT A GUNMAN, should one enter. Tiny 60lb kids throwing soup cans. Oh yeah. That’ll stop a massacre. We live in rural Texas.
