Am I weird or is that strange ?? Have voiced my concerns with the head teacher and he says its not uncommon and not considered weird.. head teacher compared it to a woman teacher wearing a bikini and I said no, more like a G banger ! he kind of agreed after that , your thoughts please on both the name calling and the pool attire or lack of it !

Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 21y 8m 30d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 20/10/10 05:56 AM Share Posted 20/10/10 05:56 AM Calling the kid a ranga is wrong IMO. However, I don't think it's a really offensive term. The thing is, you never know how someone will take it. What's acceptable to me might not be acceptable to the next person.Budgie smugglers are acceptable swimwear. I don't see a problem with that.look not being mean but I don't think forum post's like this have a place on car forums, and what I'm noticing it's happing alot on this forum. what's happing in people's personal life I think has no place on here unless it's car related. and there is other avenue's for your problem.This thread is in the Off Topic forum. It's for anything non-car related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 20/10/10 06:04 AM Share Posted 20/10/10 06:04 AM This is a car forum ????? Mate as for the budgie smugglers mmm a hard one but by law he can. Its nothing more than they would see if they were in the nippers. If he had them on outside the pool area well then he is in all sorts of trouble.If he called your kid a ranga or any other form of derogetory bating... then he is in all sorts of trouble.Iif you conact the state authorities on it he will be suspended till an inquirey into it and a formal outcome. It could get messy. I would demand a meeting with him and the school principal. Do not let them make your child attend the meeting. Keep your calm (yep I know impossible when it comes to our kids) and keep to the point. Don't let them derail the meeting. Also demand a written letter of appology to the child from the teacher.

I dont want messy, just to let the tosspot know its nto cool for a teacher to personally insult a 10yr old under his care and subjecting them to budgie smugglers is just wrong !

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 20/10/10 06:32 AM Share Posted 20/10/10 06:32 AM Yeah but she is a reptillian X lawyer Ranga. She has no heart or soul to be damaged. Kids are mean enough to themselves without a dickhead adult who is meant to care and show the way as a leader.I know he was more than likely just joking. but in his position he cant... not like that and not in front of other kids.I cant even say that to adults at tafe. Or when I am teaching driving or riding. And believe me I want to say that and worse. There is a huge section on it when you go for your teachers ticket. Its a big no no mate.Keating is to blame.

As for the speedo's they have a place in Ironman and swimming comp's but not while supervising 10y/o girls.... It's not hard to throw on some shorts... simple respect and decency.xcopbf. Mate there is a bit of a difference between insulting a adult and a child.... When you grow up to be an adult maybe you will see the difference.
