Bodyguards

Today, I had to pee during a supervised lockdown. I asked my teacher to take me since we couldn't be in the halls alone. Since class was going, she couldn't take me. Much to my dismay, she sent a school-wide email asking for someone to take me to pee. Six teachers took me, including my principal. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Same thing different taste

Did you guys hold hands and make a chain like they do on elementary field trips?

Did you feel well protected?

Why so many? Do you tend to spray? People with bad urine directional control create bio- and slip hazards. You don't want to slip on a pee puddle when eluding a deranged gunman. Safety first!

For the next lockdown, say you need to do a poop and see how many teachers volunteer this time.

It's better than peeing all over the classroom floor.

That's hilarious. One of those FML's I'm glad that didn't happen to me lol

I'm not from the US. What on earth is a supervised lockdown and why did OP need a teacher to come to the toilet with them?

A lockdown is when you get locked in the classroom with lights off and hide because a dangerous situation is going on in the building.

#23, or a drill to prepare for such a situation. If it were a real lockdown, they'd have told the OP to pee their pants, because many others have probably done so already.

What is actually wrong with America where a dangerous situation causing 100's of people to get locked in a building is considered normal and acceptable... In a war torn unstable country in the Middle East, sure. But last time I checked the us wasn't under invasion or experiencing a civil uprising. Figure your shit out America.

21-- I am from the U.S. and I wasn't too sure. A lot has changed in 13 years, apparently.

America is a relatively new country in a very advanced time. It takes a lot of fighting to establish a long lasting society. And people are sometimes violent creatures.

I'm from the U.S. and didn't know schools have lockdowns. My husband works at a prison and they have them, but schools? I guess I just went to a safer school. My brother is a junior there and they still don't do drills like this. How safe does turning lights off make kids from a shooter or bomb? My children will go to a rural school or I'll teach them if it's that bad.

Get over yourself. There are dangerous situations in every country. If there is so much as a suspicious character in the parking lot, some schools (typically in more dangerous areas, as my school never had a lockdown procedure) may choose to keep all the students in the classroom until the police arrive and investigate. Rather a lockdown than continue business as normal and maybe someone gets hurt. Most of the time, it's nothing. But if it were your kid, wouldn't you rather be safe than sorry? There are dangerous areas to every country, usually poorer cities. I'm willing to bet if you traveled around the globe to those poorer cities outside of the U.S. that the vast majority of them would not have any such procedures. So yes, dangerous areas need help, some kind of improvement. But in the meantime, I'd say that if schools have procedures like this in place, that they DO have their shit figured out.

I've unfortunately been through several real lockdowns and so have my siblings. usually because of a bomb threat or someone bringing a gun to school. One lockdown was actually because someone had planned an armed assault on the school. They even had napalm.

I've been in lockdown because someone robbed a bank near our school.

This is my favourite FML, honestly. I can just imagine it. Six adults escorting someone to the bathroom, patiently waiting outside and twiddling their thumbs... but I can also see your embarrassment.

I'd think you were well-endowed if you needed two people to hold it while you pee. If you require six, you may have a bright future in adult films ;)

VIPee escort - only the best for the well endowed.

Would you rather go in the toilet or wet yourself? I never saw what people got so embarrassed about admitting they have to pee.

Well hey, they can serve as meat shields if the shit ever hits the fan.

Even if this were only a drill (I'm assuming it was), then I definitely would have waited. In my high school, cops used to do rounds in the building during lockdown drills, and if anyone was caught out in the hallways, we'd automatically fail.
