Kids can be cruel sometimes and tease other kids for the weirdest of things.

What would you do if you were in preschool and the whole class was chasing you at recess, taunting you about someone liking you or some other nonsense?

That is what happened when the guy in this story was a kid, so he ran to the teacher, who put the entire class into time-out. He, however, was allowed to enjoy the rest of recess with the other students just watching him.

It seems like this turned into a core memory for him since he still thinks about it to this day. Read through the full story below and see what you think.

I put the entire preschool class in timeout during lunch time

I (30M) was a bit of a cheeky little boy, and as far back as preschool, I remember getting up to mischief and being an outright menace.

Ill-fitting pants can be annoying, even in preschool.

It was during one fateful dress-up day in pre-primary, during lunch. I dressed up as a little cowboy, and remember my pants being just a tad too big, I had to keep pulling them up so they wouldn’t fall to my ankles.

I remember being on the playground, running away from what seemed to be about two or three other kids, and simultaneously trying to pull my pants up.

Little kids can be so weird.

They were yelling something like “Tiffany likes you!” and I guess I was nervous and didn’t know what to think because I kept running away.

I kid you not, I turned around at one point and the two or three kids had turned into the entire class of primary school kids chasing after me, and screaming something about someone liking me.

The teacher did a great job.

I remember running up to the teacher and she actually thanked me for coming to her that time, rather than taking matters into my own hands, which was what I had usually done.

The next moment, was me playing by myself on the playground and looking at the entire class of kids in timeout, sitting in a row watching me, watching them.

It must have been a very weird experience.

It was such a bizarre moment in my life, I guess it’s why it stuck.

That must have been a funny sight to see. It is good that the teacher took the situation seriously and punished all those kids.

It shouldn’t be that difficult.

Hopefully these kids learned their lesson not to bully their classmates. It really seems like the teacher handled the situation well, though.

It is funny what memories stick with people for a lifetime.
