Later that day, my teacher for the flour-baby project (without naming me) told our class that she had heard about… someone… who had reacted strongly to a damaged “baby.” She felt it necessary to remind everyone that these were not real babies, and we should not get too emotionally involved with them. 😂
Before I left class that day, this same teacher told me privately that I could just use a different bag of flour without any detriment to my grade.
In the end, I got an A on the project. My theory is that the teacher either thought I had taken it seriously enough to warrant the grade — or just that she didn’t want to make me angry. (2/2)
