ALAMEDA (CBS SF) Parents of students at Encinal High School in Alameda want a teacher fired after they say he sent them home with an extra credit assignment of finding sex toys and condoms in their parents private drawers, and taking a selfie with what they find.
Mothers Kimberly Cobene and Evangeline Garcia heard about the sex toy selfie last month from a counselor at an afterschool program their sophomore daughters attend.
It was to go into your parents private drawers or whatever to seek out sexual toys or condoms, or anything of that nature and to take a selfie with it, Cobene said.
Encinal High administrators implied to the moms that the assignment may have been a joke, but not every student saw it that way.

(52,331 posts)even if the teacher made it absolutely 100% clear that it was a joke and not to be taken seriously and under no circumstances actually do this, it's still inexcusable.

(12,778 posts)No kidding. I don't understand why people think it's cool to pull something stupid and then just say "I was only joking."

"oh, yeah, it's 5! i was only joking when i said 7!"
