7th grade DAB

(*Dumb Ass Behavior)

I had this Dean conversation with a 7th grader on Tuesday:

Me: One of your friends told me that you were spitting on him during break.
Him: (sheepishly) Yeah, I was.
Me: Uhhh...GROSS!
Him: I know, but I stopped when he asked me to.
Me: Uhhh...STILL gross!

Then I had to have THIS conversation with his mother:

Me: I had to write your son up today. He was spitting on another student.
Her: WHY?
Me: Because he's a 7th grade boy.
Her: No, I understand why you had to write him up. Why was he spitting?
Me: Because he's a 7th grade boy.
