This teacher was in her 28th year of teaching.
One day she took a Monster drink away from a female student because they are not allowed to have those in class.
That same female student later on accused the teacher of inappropriately touching her.
The teacher was put on administrative leave because of that Title 6 complaint.
The female student’s mother, who works in the central office, dropped the complaint.
Fortunately, there are cameras in the classroom. The day of the supposed incident, the teacher wasn’t even working that day because of her mother’s recent death. The cameras found no evidence of inappropriateness.
But here is the kicker. Besides removing that student from this teacher’s classroom, nothing happened to her. No suspension, no expulsion, no punishment, no consequences whatsoever. Nothing was done and that is what the problem is in this day and age. No consequences for children.
That student should have received a suspension at the very least. I would even go so far to say she should have been expelled from that school. Even with the truth coming out, sometimes the damage is already done.
What would you have done if you were this teacher? Can’t sue the child, sue the parents maybe? What are her options?
Parents: If there’s ONE video you watch on social media today. Please let it be this one:
Frank Martin discusses parents attempting to coach their kids from the sidelines.
Incredible bit. Rory Mcilroy guessing the golfer by only looking at a swing silhouette. Even nails Lebron and Charles Barkley (lol).
Every sport needs to do have their top athletes do this challenge.
Number of times I call fouls this obvious and kids lose their mind is an ongoing problem in youth basketball. The defender picked the ball up and threw it after this. What are we doing??
Oh my GOD this is great A GAP INTEGRITY here

The whole Super Mario Bros game fits in 40 kilobytes. The selfie on your phone is bigger than that. Nintendo had so little memory to work with that five of the levels you played as a kid are exact copies of earlier ones.
World 5-3 is World 1-3 with a few Bullet Bills flying in from off-screen. World 5-4 is World 2-4 with every fire bar turned on at once. Worlds 6-4, 7-2, and 7-3 also reuse old level data. Same map, different paint job.
In 1985, Miyamoto’s team had 32 kilobytes for the game’s code and 8 for the graphics. About one phone photo’s worth of space, total, to hold the entire game including physics, music, art, and 32 levels. So they wrote each level as a recipe. “Place a pipe here. Stack twelve bricks here. Drop a Goomba at this spot.” The game cooked the level live as Mario walked through it. When the cartridge ran low on space, the team pointed to an old recipe and dropped new enemies on top.
The two screenshots in the source tweet look like cousins for the same reason. Miyamoto built every Mario level from the same tiny pile of building blocks. Start with the brick staircase that ends most stages, the pyramid stack of question blocks, the pipes that always rise from a shared baseline, and the rule that Mario can only jump four blocks high. That last one sets every platform’s height across all 32 levels. Move those pieces around and the player feels like they are somewhere new, even though they have seen the parts a hundred times.
That is what makes 8-1 and 8-3 feel like the same world wearing different clothes. The 8-1 staircase is a solid wall of bricks. The 8-3 version is the same staircase shape, but built out of floating coin blocks with empty sky between them. Same outline. Completely different game.
This was Nintendo trying to save space. It accidentally became one of the most copied design tricks in video game history. Forty years and 40 million copies later, the game still teaches designers a single lesson. Build a small box of pieces well, and the player will think the box is endless.
“Being married to your true partner and having a good marriage is a superpower in life. Where it’s like you feel like every problem can be beaten because there’s two of you… If I have a problem she has a problem, if she has a problem I have a problem and we tackle it together. Knowing someone who always has your back is a superpower” -@BarstoolBigCat
