1.That you are not allowed to go to the bathroom

After teachers say this they all make that joke about how of course it is an exception if you are about to throw up.

I think that people should be able to go to the bathroom whenever they see fit.

It is a lot easier to pay attention when you aren't holding your bladder and counting down the minute until you can get out. Some people will argue and say that these people should just pee before class. Well, sometimes it just doesn't work that way. You cannot control when you are going to pee.

What if I have my period? Am I supposed to just sit in my blood so that I do not "distract" others?

2. That you are not allowed to have your laptops out

A lot of people take notes on their laptops, so this seems a bit much.

I believe that it should be each student's choice if they want to go to class and mess around on their laptop. If they don't want to learn and pay attention than that is their choice. It is their/ their parent's money that they are wasting,

 3.  That you can not eat in class

If I am in class from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. with no break, you bet that I am bringing in a snack to keep me from getting hungry.

I get that it can be distracting, but how can students focus if they are hungry?

We're sleep-deprived enough, don't leave us hungry too.

4.  Taking your cellphones during tests

Taking your cellphones is a bit much.

I get it ensures no one can cheat but as long as you see everyone putting their phones in their bags, then it's not an issue.

I do understand that this can be harder for a large class though to make sure no one cheats, but you still can depend on the honor code.

5.  Assigned seats

In college, this isn't as big of an issue. But in high school, I remember this being a super annoying rule.

It takes the fun out of the class if you cannot sit next to your friends and stuff.
