Whatever, Whatever and Amen

I am just on Whatever overload right now. That’s the truth.

They ask why they can’t take tests in pairs. I tell them that one of their goals while in schools is to become self-sufficient.

“Whatever.”

They want to know why they can’t do work from other classes in my class. I tell them that this class is equally important and deserves equal attention.

“Whatever.”

They want to know why they can’t wear headphones. I tell them that we’re having a class discussion.

“Whatever.”

If these kids don’t like my answers, then stop asking questions!

Hey, you don’t want to give 100% in my class. I get it—teenagers. It just seems like I spend too much time laying down some knowledge for these kids about Big Boy/Girl Time to get the jack-a-ninny chirp of, “Whatever.”
