Teacher’s “Petty” Note Restricting Bathroom Breaks Sparks Outrage Among Parents

The general rules are that if a child wants to visit the bathroom or the nurse’s office during lesson time, they should ask their teachers for permission. And although some students tend to abuse their right to excuse themselves in order to embark on ‘adventures’ around the school halls, most only ask for permission when they really feel the need to go. 

One teacher named Mrs. White from the Aspire Hanley Middle School, a charter school in Memphis, Tennessee, decided to come up with her own rules when it comes to taking bathroom breaks. Needless to say, parents were outraged about what she had to say. The mom of one of Mrs. White’s eight-grade students shared the note her kid brought home and it spread all over the Internet like a wildfire. 

Namely, Mrs. White wrote how her students are only allowed to two bathroom breaks a month during her lessons, and that’s it.

In case they leave the classroom more than that, then they get either a detention or zero points on the assignment they decide to walk out on. 

What’s most, she even confirms she is petty. 

She then goes on and writes how her students can speak to her about the rules, which we believe are pure nonsense, but nothing will change. 

And in case a kid loses their pass, she says, “I’m sorry, try again next month.” If this isn’t the purest form of cruelty, I don’t know what is. 

Once the original photo was deleted, other parents came forward and posted it again. Many people took their stand against this teacher and shared their opinions about her rules which are not in accordance with the school rules whatsoever. 

“This shows someone with control issues who has no power or authority at home, so they bring what little power they have to the one place where they will have no resistance: the classroom,” said a person named Jaadee Sykes, who shared the note on her Twitter and referred to it as “abhorrent.”

However, when the superintendent of the school, Nickalous Manning, heard of this from Facebook, he asked for an investigation to be completed. 

“There is no policy in place at our school that restricts students’ access to the bathroom or to the nurse’s office,” said Altovise Boyd, the regional director of the charter school. Further, he added the school has “convened [the] full team to review all relevant policies and procedures.”

“Yes, lets all make poor children hold their bladders bc them going to the restroom is a nuisance for you. My child has my permission to walk out of whoever’s class if they tell him he can’t go,” one mom tweeted showing her outrage. 

There were also those who supported Mrs. White, with one of them saying, “My god, people. Teacher makes a mistake in handling a situation that is obviously very frustrating for her and you folks are prepared to destroy her.” 

Honestly, I would be really angry in case my kid comes home with such absurd note. How would you react? 

‘The Makeover Guy’ Gives this Divorcee One of the Sexiest Transformations Ever

There comes a time in our life when we dedicate all our strength to make those around us happy and forget about ourselves. And then, something that turns our world upside-down happens and we realize we’ve been neglecting the most important person in our life – ourselves – for so long. 

For a woman named Heather from Amarillo, Texas, such wake-up call was the separation from her husband of many years. This 48-old-divorcee needed a change that would remind her she’s alive and beautiful, and our favorite guy, Christopher Hopkins, was more than willing to give it to her. 

The ‘Makeover Guy’ is known for the happiness he brings in people’s lives with his creativity and out-of-this-world talent.

This time, he was determined to give Heather the so much anticipated change and help her improve her self-esteem. 

Speaking of the time of her divorce, Heather said, “Eventually I just kind of gave up for a while,” referring to the way she looked. 

She had no idea what to expect, she only knew that she trusted Christopher so much that she decided to leave her complete appearance in his skillful hands. And she did the right thing. 

When Christopher asked Heather if there was something she didn’t want to see, she answered she didn’t want to see “ugly” as if that was even possible in this guy’s salon. 

He started off with Heather’s gray straggly hair. He gave her a cut and dyed it in a light auburn color. It’s truly incredible how a simple hair cut can wipe off 20 years of someone’s face. 

The make-up he applied highlighted Heather’s natural beauty. 

“I really wanted Christopher to do whatever he thought was best, and I think he kind of nailed it,” Heather said. “I feel sexy!”

Honestly, we can’t agree more. You look absolutely stunning! 

Take a look at Heather’s transformation in the video below.

Shy boy gets standing ovations with Celine Dion hit

Talent shows never cease to amaze us because they prove us over and over again that ordinary people with special skills and talents do get the chance to shine and leave the world speechless.

The Voice Kids, the Belgian edition, brings us an incredible moment of a shy boy who took the stage and looked around in confusion. But it only took him a line of Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On” for all the three judges to press their buzzers and see the boy with the voice of an angel.  

13-year-old Abu stole the hearts of everyone in the room and got standing ovations. 

I believe that no one really expected for such energy and emotion to come from such a young man. 

We all knew this would be a night to remember for Abu and his family at the backstage who were keeping their fingers crossed when two of the judges started smiling widely.

Josje Huisman and Laura Tesoro knew they were witnessing a star being born. 

Their facial expressions spoke louder than words and showed their amazement in a perfect manner. 

All the tree judges were now facing Abu who smiled back at them as a thank you for turning towards him. 

The family couldn’t hide their excitement when they realized the crowd and the judges loved what their little boy had to show on that stage. 

People were cheering as Abu sang along. He added his own touch to the song and it sounded perfectly. 

At this point, judges were clapping and singing and they all hoped this little music prodigy would pick them to be in their team. 

As the performance continued, everyone was even more convinced Abu is a star in the making. 

At the end of the powerful performance, judge Sean Dhondt ran onto the stage and sat cross-legged in front of the artist, showing his admiration. 

The video of Abu singing on the show has been seen more than 23 million times since it was first posted in April 2017. 

Well, he didn’t end up winning the competition but we are sure that if he decides to pursue a career as a singer one day, his name will quickly become famous in the industry. Because with such talent one wouldn’t expect anything less than huge popularity. 

Take a look at the performance below and make sure you share it with your friends. 

Modern swing dance duo shows off vintage style as they tear up the floor to “Hey Baby!”

Everybody loves dancing. No matter if you think you have two left feet, when your favorite song is on, you just dance to the rhythm. However, it takes special skills to master many styles all at once. 

Modern swing dance is a combination of a number of styles and the best thing about it is that people of all shapes and sizes with the right amount of talent can master it. 

Although it originates in the U.S., swing dancing stole the hearts of people from every corner of the world and gained its popularity very quickly. 

And no matter how many dancers who practice this style you know of, no one really does it in a more mesmerizing manner than Bianka Locatelli and Nils Andrén. She’s a native Italian who moved to Sweden in her teens, and he’s a native Swed. Together, they comprise one of the best pairs in modern swing dancing. At the moment, Locatelli and Andrén dance on Sweden’s national team in “Boogie Woogie” and take part in numerous “Lindy Hop” competitions. 

This dancing couple leaves audiences from all around the world in awe as they showcase their routines and talent during their global travels. 

Their vintage flair is on point ever since they met back when they were both 16. 

If you want to know how popular they really are, just take a look at the video of their performance at the Rock That Swing Festival at the Deutsches Theater in Munich, Germany, which has been seen more than 13 million times. 

In the video that is beyond satisfying to watch, the former Swedish national champions show their greatness and their love for dancing in all their glory. 

It looks as though they are floating on air and not touching the floor. The choice of song, Bruce Channel’s 1961 hit “Hey Baby!”, only adds to the magic of their routine. 

People were so overwhelmed by what they saw that they only had words of praise: 

“They have so much fun I can’t take my eyes off of them! Great!!!” one person wrote.

Moving in perfect harmony and with huge smiles on their faces throughout the whole time, these two made their routine look like a piece of cake. It’s all so smooth and fun-to-watch that we can’t help by play it over and over again. 

“I love this! That guy can really dance! That guy’s dancing is pure art. He was meant to do that. He told the whole song with his dance I must have watched this 10 times already. I can’t stop watching this guy dance. His partner is perfect also. But he’s a real actor to this song,” a person gushed.

I honestly doubt that any other couple can ever achieve this level of excellence. 

“They love swing dancing because it brings people together and spreads joy between them, but also because it has a technical and ‘nerdy’ side. The dance challenges them in keeping practicing, creating and expressing,” Bianca and Nils’ Facebook bio states. 

This routine is definitely something you don’t want to miss. Share it with your friends to make their day. 

Lil Nas X and Sam Elliott Have a Dance Off in Super Bowl Ad

The Super Bowl is here! One of the most anticipated events in the country is about to gather millions in front of their TVs on Sunday. And as most of them are there to enjoy the game and cheer for their favorite team, a great number of viewers are eager to check the commercials out. 

Among the companies who were willing to pay millions for their products to be featured during the annual championship are the Doritos. And as much as their Nacho Cheese was in the spotlight for so long, they are now updating the flavor of their Cool Ranch. And the taste of it? Well, if two big names like that of 20-year-old rapper Lil Nas X and actor Sam Elliot are “fighting” for a bag of it, it has to be exquisite. 

The two are dressed in their cowboy outfits, somewhere in the Wild West,  and ready to duel.

But instead of a game of quick draw, the pair gets into a dance-off battle. The song, as you are guessing already, is Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” that brought him two Grammy awards.  

For Elliot, who is well known for his mustache and his roles as a cowboy, filming this commercial was a totally different experience from everything he’s done before. 

“I was a little concerned about having to dance at this point in my life,” Elliott told Adweek. “I used to love to dance, I’ve always been athletic but, you know, at 75 things slow down… I wasn’t worried about opening my mouth and talking, but the dancing was a challenge.”

Elliott was first introduced to Lil Nas X’s music by his daughter and says working with the young rapper was a real pleasure. “I found him a pretty solid kid. He worked hard,” he said. “He’d never been in front of a camera on film set before, and he was up to the challenge. And he couldn’t have been nicer to be around.”

This is definitely worth checking out!

Thieves try to mug an elderly man – seconds later they get what they deserve

Getting a job and working hard to earn our living is what most of us do. So when we finally get to retire it should lead to a peaceful life free of the stress the job brings. We have enough free time to dedicate ourselves to the things we have been neglecting for so long, such as our favorite hobby, traveling the world, and embarking on new adventures. 

Societies should pay retirees utmost respect because they have done their share for the country, but sadly, that’s not always the case. 

I have heard many times of incidents where elderly and vulnerable people are the target of thieves and muggers and that makes me lose faith in humanity. Imagine what would a pensioner do if they are left without their only income? 

A video taken from an alley in a town in Russia is a lesson why one should never mess with old people. They may not be as vital as they once were, but they are full of experience and knowledge, and some of them happen to be retired boxers, just like this elderly guy from the video below. 

The muggers had no idea that they would end up knocked down on the ground when they decided to steal from this man. 

They went on him with their “fierce looking” attitude hoping to scare him, but the boxer wasn’t afraid to show off his boxing skills, and boy, we are so glad he wasn’t.

We hope the muggers learned their lesson to never mess with older people and start working their as*es off for a change. 

More than 440,000 people have seen the video so far and they all agree these muggers got what they deserved. One person wrote, “Fists like bullets, those where fast, accurate, full face punches!” 

Check this boxer’s skills in the video below and share it with your friends. 

Four preschoolers dress in suits and wow the crowd with their chair dance performance

Who doesn’t enjoy watching talent shows? I guess why most of us love these shows is because we never know what to expect. Maybe the next super star and the country’s new sweetheart is performing for the first time right before our eyes and we really don’t want to miss that moment. 

In fact, people are fond of preschool talent shows for the same reason, and a group of four young boys are here to prove that to be true. 

The moment the piano music was on and one of the boys walked to the stage dressed in a suit, a hat, and a chair in his arms, everyone knew it would be a performance worth seeing. 

He placed the chair on the stage, sat on it, and slapped his lap in the beat. Another boy, dressed exactly the same, carrying a chair, joined the first one. 

The rest of the group then walked from opposite sides of the stage and the show was on. 

This cute quartet stole everyone’s heart by dancing to the rhythm and in perfect harmony. It was obvious this incredible routine was a result of many hours of practice and hard work. 

But, it definitely paid off as people were stunned by the moves which involved placing legs one over another, slapping, and moving to the side and onto the center. 

Next, these little gentlemen got off their chairs and walked behind them, danced around, and then danced behind the chairs again. 

What followed was sitting on the chairs facing the audience with their backs and twisting around the chairs as the music started playing again. 

The peak of the performance was when the boys climbed onto the chairs. No one at the audience could hide their amusement and cheering and clapping can be heard during the whole thing. 

And just when we though this couldn’t get any cuter, the boys jumped off the chairs one by one, and then sit on them again and lifted their hats. 

It’s truly amazing knowing this comes from such young children. Their confidence only adds to the outcome that stunned everyone who got so see them dance. 

After it was uploaded on YouTube, the video of the performance has been seen more than 1.7 million times. People can’t help by comment on it:

I am sure the popularity they gained with their incredible dance moves will make them consider performing again in the future. All these four young boys are artists in the making, don’t you think so?

Make sure you check the video out, you’re going to love it!

5 children removed from family after allegedly being locked in cages on several occasions

All a child needs while growing up is to feel loved and safe knowing they have by they side someone who cares. Although most parents are overly protective of their children and would do all in their power to see them happy and thriving, there are also cases of child abuse and neglect that break our hearts into a million pieces. 

Such devastating case that deeply disturbed the whole country was reported in Alabama. Allegedly, five children have been kept locked in cages on several occasions by their mother and grandparents. 

Thankfully, authorities were able to step in and save the poor children from the hands of their cruel family. 

ABC News reported that authorities were alerted of possible child abuse on January 13.

When they visited the home, which is situated in Smiths Station, in eastern Alabama’s Lee County, investigators were welcomed by four of the children aged 3, 4, 10, and 11. An 8-month-old baby was also living in the house. 

Inside the place, there were two wooden cages with hasps and locks. The sight was devastating knowing those kids were spending time inside those cages. 

“[The] investigation revealed evidence that the children had been locked in the cages on multiple occasions,” Lee County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement, released on social media.

Thankfully, authorities acted immediately and the children’s mother was arrested and charged with two counts of child abuse of a child younger than 6 years old, and two counts of reckless endangerment. The grandparents who were also involved in the abuse of the children were charged under the same counts as the mother. 

We are so glad none of these five kids would ever have to be treated in such cruel manner again. We hope they will be able to overcome the stress and trauma they were forced to go through while living with people who treated them as objects.
