+739 If students can get away with chewing gum in class every day without the teacher seeing, it's obviously not that big of a deal and we should be allowed to chew it, amirite?

We would be allowed to chew gum in class but it's all over the walls and desks...

If kids would dispose of it properly, it wouldn't ever have been an issue. We weren't supposed to when I was in school, but I'm really suprised if most teachers care that much about something like that still.

If people can get away with smoking weed everyday without cops seeing, it's obviously not that big of a deal and we should be allowed to smoke it.

The only reason we're not supposed to chew gum in class is because it discourages people from leaving their gum in certain places, such as under the desks and on the floor. You're pretty much allowed to chew gum, but not spit it out onto the floor.

there was a study done and shown in the readers digest that kids chewing gum during and during tests are more productive and less distracted. they say it's cuz it gives kids something to focus on rather than the million other distractions around the room... :)
