my girl cry

okay, so i made one of my girls cry today. NOT one of my own, but one at work. how are you 13 years old and do not know how to put your hair up in a pony tail, wrap the tail around and make it a bun??? are you serious?? my partner and i had tried to explain for at least 20 minutes before breakfast (making us late) and then again before class. this girl was so hilarious and did not understand what to do with her brush to make her hair go back. we arent allowed to put hands on the kids so we just had to do it all verbal...hard. i just kept laughing, but i talk loud so i think that me explaining over and over just got to her and she stood there at the busted mirror and started to cry. then i say again, are you serious??? crying cause you cant do your hair? im still not use to this kind of emotion, being that i worked with the 17 yr old boys for 4 years. big change. one of the other girls eventually got up to help explain and even asked if she could put gloves on and just do it for her. nope. if she didnt get it now and got help, then we would have to go through the same thing tomorrow and so forth. she ended up getting it done, but if she would have just listened the first time instead of spacin off, it would have been done right. these kids have a hard time listening and just doing things right the first time...but shoot, dont we all? maybe thats why i get frustrated with these lil girls cause i sometimes forget that i havent always been so perfect;)
