I don’t even know why she did this, maybe she really did misinterpret or maybe she made this up for whatever reason. I have dealt with some really interesting teachers in middle school and in sophomore year.
This teacher either left or got fired, but the bell rang. I (skipped kindergarten, was 14 years old) was talking about watching a movie with my friend.
All of a sudden, the teacher told me to come see her before we walked to the buses.
She said she heard me say that I was going to “talk to my 19-year-old boyfriend Russell” and that she was worried about me.
She then said she looked through my phone, as I left my backpack in the special education room, and she said she saw a contact named “Russell” (I do not have a contact named that).
She then called my parents and my aunt and uncle found out because my dad told them.
My aunt never really liked me, but she wouldn’t stop talking about how the teacher never lies and that I probably do have a 19-year-old boyfriend.
I never spoke to any 19-year-olds named Russell, or any 19-year-olds at that, or any Russells, let alone date any.
My second grade teacher told me that negative numbers don’t exist.
She was trying to communicate that you can’t have a negative quantity of something (pencils in this case) but I had just learned about negative numbers in my own time and her words indicated that the concept wasn’t real, even if that wasn’t her intent. At the time, I found the exchange very upsetting.
