Texas: Teacher’s Reward Program Charges Second-Graders ‘Boyd Bucks’ for Bathroom Breaks
December 3rd, 2012Social engineering payload: You need money for everything. You need to pay to piss, for example.
How about charging them to breathe?
Oh yeah, this is the in-school suspension and breakfast stick state.

The mother of a 7-year-old Irving elementary school student says her son wet his pants in class after his teacher refused to let him use the restroom Thursday afternoon.
“I was absolutely appalled,” Sonja Cross said. “I could not believe it.”
The first-year teacher at J.O. Davis Elementary awards her students with “Boyd Bucks” for good behavior. Going to the bathroom outside of the three scheduled breaks costs two Boyd Bucks per trip.
Cross’ son, an honor roll student, needed to go to the bathroom, but he sat back down because he didn’t have any Boyd Bucks, his mother said.
Some schools won’t let them go at all anymore, except on “scheduled” breaks. They implement this as early as kindergarten, and if a student has an accident, he or she is ridiculed. Sometimes I wonder which is worse.
As a parent, were they my kids, Mr Boyd better have good health insurance.
Dispassionately, this is just police state bleedover into the schools. Soon it’ll be pee-wee soccer coaches making little girls practice till they get heat stroke. The culture-wide Milgram Experiment gone rogue.
