Any teachers out there? Can I do this??
Hello DSers. I'm on my way to a DS revision from the band (hopefully), but the thing most scary to me is...TEENAGERS! I teach high school and I am wondering if I can do this DS thing... I can't always just run to the bathroom when I want to. And the teacher with gas? It will be all over before it starts... If you are a teachers who has a DS, would you let me know how you did it?? I know that diet has a lot to do with it, but I still want to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly!!

I had more problems with the band in class than I have ever had with the DS. I lived thru 2 hours of sliming on a sip of coffee during the state TAKS test and survived. Worst thing I have had to deal with is making it back to class from break if I had to go, but I could always make it to break with no problems.
Gas is controllable with diet and your own ability to hold it. No worries there. I taught HS for 9 years and Elem for 4, so no worries about the DS here.
You will be glad you revised to the DS it is heaven!

You cannot believe how encouraging this is. I have also spent two hours sliming into a plastic bag during a field trip. Gross. THANK YOU for your post!!!
