If I ask to go to the bathroom it's obviously bc I need to use the bathroom. Even if it's not the reason that's still gonna be my answer. What do teachers think we're gonna say? To slay the Dragon and open the closet to naria?! Then if someone is in the bathroom they say"Jenny just went so no you can't go." Um excuse me? Does Jenny have my bladder? No. She don't so I still gotta go. My momma always told me that I can get up and go if I need to. Has anyone else mom said that?

I got what you mean. Lol and you got a point. Anyways, i am a mom and yep i told my kid to tell the teacher he needs to go to the comfort room if he really feels he needs to. I mean, i dont want him peeing in the room.

It is a part of disciplining oneself to ask permission. I used to excuse myself during my primary and secondary levels years.

@Tigerz Yes, it is elementary and high school. We don't have middle school during my time.

Maybe because some students sometimes lie about having to use the toilet...

I have an overactive bladder and have to use the bathroom a lot. I didn't have that problem when I was in public school and I'm grateful for that. You bring up some good points and it is amusing but the teachers are just doing their jobs. It would be tough if more than 1 person had to really use the bathroom at the same time. I guess people have to do what they have to do depending on the situation.

When my husband was little, his Mum told the teachers he was to go to the toilet whenever he needed to. They have some crazy ideas sometimes.
