Monday

                  What happens when a child drives you so crazy that you cannot stand them anymore? You feel like a bad person, I mean this is a children something that is ideally so sweet and innocent. However, there are certain times when this precious child acts like a total ass, and all you want to do is hit them. Obviously we cannot do that, so how to deal? Just smile and get through it that's what I say. But Monday my partner child was trying my patience. She was rebellious and loud, now I know kids aren't always easy but that day I had a feeling she didn't like me almost as I didn't like her. When it came time to read she listened intently and I thought to myself finally a break. But my brief recess was interrupted when I felt something slimy and sticky roll down the side of my cheek and down my neck. What could this be? Don't worry my partner child soon informed me that she had spit on me, laughing while she said it. As I scraped the remainder of her spit from my neck she insisted that I finish the story, and that I "wasn't a very good reader." I stared at her in disbelief as she continued to whine. I shut the book and got up from the floor. She screamed at me to finish and very calmly I said, " You can read your own book." As I walked away she yelled that I wasn't her friend anymore and that she hated me. I muttered that the feeling was mutual and went to the bathroom to wash up.
