I had this exact scenario with a substitute teacher when I was in Kindergarten because I made a purple tree, and accidentally destroyed her because she said "Real trees aren't purple" to which I replied "I know, but this isn't a real tree it's a coloring page and I like purple". She was pissed and my mom was called, who pretty much agreed with me. My normal teacher Mrs.K would have been like fuck yeah dude purple trees, but she was sick that day lol.

Some trees turn purple in autumn anyway

????? But… there are purple trees? Ornamental Plums, Japanese Maples, certain Redbud varieties… did this lady never go outside?

I guess they’re all more of a reddish purple, but still…

I need a gang of the scariest looking people, to find those parents and scare the shit out of them and warn them that we'll rerun if he's even hurts his kids feelings again

Every bit as sad (and true) today as it was in 1978.

Be the second teacher you want to see in the world!

Dang, this hits close to home.

I remember getting chewed out for drawing a tree sideways, unable to articulate that it was on purpose because the tree had been cut down.

Fortunately I rediscovered my passion for art as an adult.
