That wait outside; studying the wall as if it interested me, hopping from foot to foot, hoping the Russians would drop the Bomb so I would not have to face the evil head. Then the door would open and the head would pop her head outside, give me a grim smile and invite me inside.
"Well, Amanda? Why were you sent here?"
She would hold out her hand for the note my teacher gave me in its sealed envelope. She would open in slowly, read the contents and shake her head.
"Cheek again, Amanda."
"Yes, miss."
The long pause while the clock ticked away my fate and I contemplated running out the door and escaping into the countryside. Did the Foreign Legion accept sixteen year old girls? Or could I stow away on a ship?
No; my fate was more immediate.
"Lift your skirt and bend over the desk," the headmistress said, lifting her cane.
@MandyMitchell Cheek or as we say "sass" is such a broad category. Odds are it was a totally arbitrary judgment call. Would you have punished someone who said what you said? I see almost all such adult complaints as more a sign of adults "pulling rank" rather than demonstrations of true leadership. Natural officers or genuine leaders never need to, even in emergencies.

@Muffintopgina That was quite daring going to a friends hose to change into those short shorts . I tried leaving the house wearing short shorts . Yes Mom caught me and failed to see the humor when I argued with her ! The shorts were soon off over her lap for the wood brush . Didn’t go anywhere that day !

@pcasper59 I made shure my mum never seen the dead tiny skirts I changed into

No,but I recall one day in high school when our English teacher warned everyone in the class to be on their best behaviour that day as the Principal was "in a very agitated state" - I whispered to the boy sitting next to me - "He's never in any other state!" The teacher overheard me and gave me a very dirty look - but I'm sure that she probably agreed with me.

Yes for something I didn’t do. I was framed I tell ya !

Yes I got kicked out of school after being caught holding a friend's cigarette for her.
But they never found out about the liquor someone gave me for my birthday hidden in my locker. 🤭
Adrift · 61-69, F
@Blondily I got in trouble for holding liquor that was brought in an orange juice container by one of my friends. We all ended uo in the deans office. We all got suspended for about a week.
Blondily · F
@Adrift But what happened to the liquor? lol
Adrift · 61-69, F
@Blondily It was thrown away, supposedly.
Musicman · 61-69, M
Only once and I was terrified.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
I was there more than him
Adrift · 61-69, F
I had my own chair
Torsten · 36-40, M
yep. I even ended up having the principal teach me classes in his office cause i was constantly in there and they wanted me separated from other students.
That was in primary school. When i reached High School, they would just suspend me

Once in second grade, I vaguely recall. Yet it was somewhat serious, since they held me back a year. And even sent me to a different school.

That's was the only time.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@DeWayfarer What happened?
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@Musicman I don't remember exactly. I was told that I wasn't socially old enough. Yet after completing the second grade at the second school, they sent me back to the first school again for the remainder of elementary school.
