Problem Child

I have a student in one of my UVU classes who I can't seem to get under control!  How ridiculous!  This is a university (my sister claims it's not, but hey, it's in the title) so I didn't expect to have any behavior problems.  She is always texting in class and if I call her on it, she tries to hide it.  The frustrating thing is that she sits the closest to me!  AND she always talks to the girl next to her.  On Monday I asked them to stop talking but she kept right on so I called her out specifically and she was really rude back to me.  Sigh.  I guess I'll just have to slap her next time.  I had hoped it wouldn't come to that.  (Yes, I actually did.  And no, I won't actually hit her).  I'm going to have to be "an adult" (boo) and before class tell her that if she continues to disrupt I will have to kick her out of my class.  Oh please disrupt!

I say find out her greatest insecurity and pound her with it for the remainder of the semester. Thats the best way to gain respect and the only way annoying people learn.
