“Unbelievable: 66 Outrageous Student Excuses That Sound Too Wild to Be True!”
~10 years ago I had a student say he didn’t do the homework because his car caught fire on his ride home, and his textbook was in the back seat. I was suspicious, but he quickly produced the badly charred textbook, which was also completely waterlogged from when the fire department put out the fire, and asked me if I could issue him a new one.
It’s possible that he burned and soaked his textbook in an effort to getting out of doing the homework. If that was the case, bravo.
That she has problem sending her project because the roof is too slippery for her.
Background: Online education, students need to submit a video project. Student only relies on mobile internet because only the rich affords affortable internet in the Philippines. So she climbs their house to get a good cellular signal. That time it was raining.
She sent a picture as evidence. Made me rethink how my students could submit academic requirements.
A student (14) brought alcohol to school. He was the troublemaker type so everyone thought he was consuming alcohol at such a young age, while he was denying vehemently and said that his dad must have put it in his bag unknowingly. Unbelievable, I know. He was sent to the counsellor immediately while his mother was called. She was adamant that her son could never touch alcohol. The principal asked her to keep an eye on the student anyway as teenagers are unpredictable, the student got detention for a week and mandatory counselling session.
Turns out, his dad did put the alcohol in his bag but not unknowingly. His parents were in a process of getting a divorce and the student was living with his mother. That morning his dad picked him up to take him to school and hid a bottle in his bag. From what we’ve heard, his dad is an alcoholic and real a***ive and his mum was getting divorce on grounds of domestic violence. The dad was facing the possibility of jail time so he tried to build a case against the mum by showing that she is manipulative and controls people around her by getting them addicted to d***s and alcohol. Evidence was that she was turning their son into an alcoholic too.
