Toughen up, kid!

got this e-mail from G today....this was an actual conversation he heard at school today!

-------------------------------------------
Just heard a conversation in the faculty lounge that you might get a kick out of…..a dean was talking to a teacher, apparently about a kid who was crying in her Spanish class. (I can’t remember if it was a boy or girl they were referring to, but I’ll just say “he” to refer to the student.)

The dean asked, “What are you just going to make him cry again?”

The teacher replied, “I guess so.”

Dean: “Are you going to have him crying in your class all the time?”

Teacher: “Look, I can’t help it if he’s that sensitive. He’s going to have to learn…”

Dean: “But, all he did was give a wrong answer to a question, and he said you gave him a mean look.”

Teacher: “Then put him in another class.” (in frustration)

Dean: “But you’re the nicest one in the department!”
