14 yr old was forced to pee in his class

A teacher at Charles M. Goethe Middle School in Sacramento forced an eighth-grade student to urinate in a bottle while in class, the student and his mother said.

Sacramento Unified School District officials said they are investigating the allegation.

The student, 14-year-old Michael Patterson, said he had been drinking a sports drink all morning long, was late for class, but still needed to use the restroom.

Patterson said when he asked to use the restroom the teacher humiliated him and forced him to urinate in his science class while 31 other students turned their heads.

"I had a Gatorade bottle and I thought he was joking with me and he said, 'Go in the corner by the sink,'" Patterson said.

Patterson didn't want to get suspended, face the principal or have to tell his mother he was in trouble, he said.

"I did it," Patterson said. "While I was doing it he yelled, 'It stinks,' and he was laughing about it."

District officials said they are investigating the personnel matter and if the allegations are true, they will take appropriate action.

"I really honestly could not believe it," mother Kelly Jacko said. "I was really upset. I can't even describe how mad I was when I got that phone call."

Patterson said he was allowed to leave class to wash his hands and dispose of the urine-filled bottle. Patterson added that he is now being teased by the other students.

Patterson's mother said she wants his teacher fired.

"I think he owes my mom, my sister and me an apology," Michael Patterson said.

Pissing his pants was the other option.

Pissing his pants was the other option.

No, the other option was for the teacher to excuse him so he could use the bathroom.

That teacher should be fired, that was totally uncalled for.

I agree. There is no reason to humiliate a child like that in front of his entire class. He'll never live that down. Ever.

Absolutely, suspended at least. Fired at most.

Although I'd have liked to see them try it with my son. There is NO WAY he would have done that, regardless how much he needed to pee!

Or the kid could've just said "hey, I've gotta pee. I'm going pee." Then excused himself, went pee and returned to class.

Then the kid would be suspensed, most likely, for leaving the class without permission.

Now what if the kid is lying?

Surely the other kids could back him (or the teacher) up?

[slim 1,514]

What's worse, to be suspended for "leaving class to pee" and then following up with an administrative appeal or something similar...

...or peeing in front of the class then having a huge ordeal made of it?

This kid was 14. Not 4.
