True story a kid in my third grade class hit the desk behind him on the way down and was paralyzed. fire fighters (or paramedics idk I was 9) came to our classroom to get him. he came back to school MONTHS later in a wheelchair

My son's in 5th grade and all the kids in his class still remember the day in 1st grade he tipped his chair and split his head open. No one was tipping their chairs after that 😬🤣

Throw in the story of my 4th grade class. A boy sliced the tip of his finger OFF leaning his desk too far forward.

Actually happened in my class. Four staples in his scalp. The class was horrified but fascinated.

When I was in primary one of my classmate leaned back on his chair and fell. He broke his arm in 2 places. It was really scary and all the other students learned their lesson that day.

It is lore, I’ve told it so many times I’ve convinced myself it’s true.

I have my uncle. He fell backwards while drinking with my other uncle in his kitchen. Rushed to the hospital, spent 2 months there, 1 month unable to speak, still has lasting personality change a decade later.

Why do these kids sit with their feet in their chairs???? In my 36 years of teaching this is a two year phenomenon. It drives me INSANE

Little words :
It is legend…I am 53 and would never dare lean back on a chair! I have never eaten chewing gum as apparently I will choke. However I did survive having random items thrown at me for talking and spending playtime on what I now think was scaffolding bars…on concrete.
