Should I report this to a teacher or tell the girl myself?

Question

Theres this girl I have to sit next to, since we have assigned seating. She smells so bad, she stinks like Chef Boyardee's ravioli or like Spaghetti Os. It so gross, Ijust wanna vomit! How can I get a new seating place?

Answer 1

Ask the teacher nicely or that you cant see the board that well

Answer 2

just ask the teacher to move you and tell her your reason

Answer 3

tell the teacher, kids shouldnt be smelling like that, its a health hazard, the girl's parents need to be questioned on when she showers or does the laundry

Answer 4

You seem to be a nice girl, and I can c that all the answers that are given are only taking you in conseduration .. sweety .. do something good, put yourself in this other girls shoe .. what would u prefer to hear it from the teacher .. or from the girl next to yaa.

I know what i will say is not the same as everybody .. but .. you can make a diffreance to that girls life.

I suggest u telling her that yourself, most probably she has no friends, If she is indan, well usially they smell casue of stuff they eat .. lots of spice foods ..

talk to her, if u dont she will end up alon most probably .. if u need help of what to say or how to say it .. jsut IM me .. and i would be more than happy to talk to yaa.

Answer 5

Talk to the teacher in private about the situation. Don't tell the girl yourself because that's just not cool!  Let the teacher know what you told us but be nice about it. Rudeness will only make the teacher turn a deaf ear on the matter. Some cultures have foods that are spiced differently that "American" foods and it comes out of their pores. Therefore they smell different. Good Luck.

Answer 6

just ask the teacher...

Answer 7

Does pasta smell that bad? Just tell the teacher your not happy with your seat no need to be mean.

Answer 8

dont tell the teacher, cus she prob. wont move you cus shell think its unfair to the next person who has to deal with it. drop hints to the girl. offer her parfume like twice a class, if you become friends with her give her body smelling presents like bath and body works stuff. and be like, " ew its so grosss this girl in my _____ class smells sooo bad its disgusting i hate when people smell bad especcially when i have to deal with it all classs"

Answer 9

I suggest asking your teacher for another seat but trying to give other reasons and then if the teacher is not giving in then find a polite way to say that the stench is really making you lose concentration and that you didn't really want to have to call the other student out like that but at this point you feel its your last resort.

Answer 10

Its best to talk to the teacher as you dont know how the girl will react to the news that she smell so bad she makes you want to vomit! Maybe the teacher will talk to her about personal hygeine hopefully because she may notice that NO ONE will sit next to her lol. good luck.  

Answer 11

I suggest not telling her that, just ask the teacher to assign a different seat to you.

Answer 12

you should politely bring it up to your teacher when you two are alone. You don't want to hurt that girls feelngs, and as the adult its that teacher's responsiblity to do something about it. When you talk to her don't just say "She stinks!" Say something like: "Mrs.smith this girl i sit next to, has some offensive body odor, i was wondering if you could move my seat please"

Answer 13

talk to your teacher about it..

and if you dont want to be mean about it..

just ask your teacher if he/her can change your seat because you're having difficulty seeing/hearing/paying attention.

goodluck!

Answer 14

tell the teacher this actually happened when i was in school and i told the teacher and she took care of it that way i didnt have to get involved.

Answer 15

ummm, bring some air freshener. :]

Answer 16

Tell the teacher and maybe she/ he will talk to the girl about it or give you a new seat. Dont say anything to the girl because it would probably upset her.

Answer 17

Don't tell the teacher you will look bad and your teacher won't do anything. Don't tell the girl you will hurt her feelings and still look bad.

the best thing to do is get some lotion or body spray or anything that smells good. Ask her if she wants some that  way she will smell good if not use it on yourself that way you will smell good and only smell yourself.
