Why teacher are so mean when they are mental?

Question

i know that but why

Answer 1

What actions are you taking to upset your teachers and make them mean?  Perhaps they are acting "mental" and "mean" in reaction to your behavior...

Answer 2

yes...we teachers...we just sit around all day and think "How can I be mean?" Yep. That's what I do? I mean I don't go to parties or on dates. And I certainly don't pull all nighters thinking of lessons that I hope my kids will like and learn from. Nope, I just plot schemes to make children cry. Sometimes I even forget to eat I'm trying to think so much about how to be mean.

Sort of like how parents just plot ways to be unfair.
