Pre-k Teacher Forces 4-year-old To Write With Right Hand Because Being Left-handed Is "Evil."

#1

In Oklahoma, an elementary school teacher has drummed up some old-school occultish controversy by demanding that left-handed students learn to write with their right hands a practice that hasn't been accepted in the US for decades. What's more, the school doesn't seem to see it as a big deal.

It started when four-year-old Zayde came home from pre-K one day, and his mother Alisha Sands noticed him writing his homework with his right hand. That came as a surprise, because Zayde had always been a lefty, just like her. Suspecting he was hearing some left-hating nonsense at school, she asked him if his teacher had ever said anything about his hands. In response, Zayde lifted his left hand and said, "This one's bad."

When Alisha sent a note to the teacher, things took a hard right turn for the worse. Instead of apologizing, the teacher sent her a link to a shady online article calling left-handedness "unlucky," "sinister," and "evil." It also pointed out that the Devil is often portrayed as left-handed. Of course, superstitions like this are nothing new any know-it-all word nerd will tell you that the word "sinister" used to mean "left" but the days of such occult mumbo-jumbo being enforced in public schools are over. Or so Alisha Sands thought.

She complained to the superintendent about her son's teacher being a psycho, but the school declined to do anything about it. The teacher is still working, educating students every day on what parts of their body are evil. When she was confronted about the story, she said condescendingly that Alisha needed "literature" on it. By which she must have meant the Necronomicon.

Only when Alisha took her story to the news team at KFOR did the school district launch an investigation. Judging from their values, it probably involves a lot of séances and astral projection.

Since her story hit the news, Alisha has been connecting with other parents on this issue. She posted this comment on Facebook:

"Until yesterday I had to assume Zayde was the only child being treated in this manner.... I was sent a video of a girl also in the class stating basically what my son had said. I feel horrible for these kids but am also a little relieved because now maybe they'll have to listen..."

Just in case they still don't want to listen, Alisha has filed an official complaint with the Oklahoma Board of Education. If that doesn't work, she'll figure out some other way to get her revenge. Left-handers never give up when they want to make someone pay.
