Kidnapped Breakfast Adults
Circa 1960
My 7th grade teacher, Mrs. Bobbie Shannon, arranged
with the parents of her students to "kidnap" them one
Saturday morning. Our parents were instructed to pack us
a bag of clothes to have waiting at Mrs. Shannon's house
for that morning. Then sometime before the crack of
dawn, we were all dragged from our beds and taken away
in pajamas — some of us with our hair still in rollers!
We arrived at Mrs. Shannon's house to find the rest of
our class and some of the other teachers and parents.
After getting over the mortification of the boys seeing
the girls in pajamas vice versa, we were allowed to get
dressed and had a fun morning which did include eating
breakfast and playing games. Imagine teachers trying to
"kidnap" their students today! |
