Every put a chicken on a banana in a bandana?
My wife always put an ‘H’ on the hardboiled eggs with a pencil to make sure they aren’t confused with the raw. When my daughter was in elementary school, they were one of her favorite snacks. So when I’d make them, instead of the ‘H’ I’d draw a little something. I’m not any great artist, but I’d draw a butterfly or a cat or some silly face. I didn’t realize for ages that they apparently became a sensation at school and the other kids always wanted to see the day’s egg.
That’s a lovely story and a lovely memory for both of you
It’s funny, after she told me it kind of felt like a pressure/obligation - I sort of wished I didn’t know.
“With greatly decorated eggs comes great responsibility”
What kind of messages does this send to your son.
Obey, when authority says to prevent art?
You’re an adult, and you’re still conditioned to obey teachers?
Get good and defy the bad rule. Keep making art all the harder now that it’s under attack.
This would be even worse if this were happening in USA, with the much touted first amendment, or anywhere that reccognises article 10 of the human rights convention.
Enjoys the compliment of the effect the art has, but still seems resolved to the ban. :/
Empathy for the teacher. It’s hard to be a teacher today and anything that pulls kids into the crazy space will sometimes encourage disrespect and bad behavior.
Not really about obeying the teacher. About empathy for your fellow human working. Teachers aren’t our bitch to abuse and say “fuck you” to, they probably are one demographic who needs the most help in the US right now
