Mother Shares 13-Year-Old Daughter’s Disturbing Classroom Activity
“Hunter, Bear, Hooker” (VIDEO)
A Texas mother, Laura Maria Gruber, is speaking out about a bizarre and troubling classroom activity her 13-year-old daughter was subjected to.
Her daughter’s class played a game called “Bear-Hooker-Hunter,” an adult drinking game, which had the children striking poses as either a hunter, a scary bear or a “seducing hooker.”
Gruber recounts that the game was held in two different classrooms by two different teachers.
The New York Post reports:
“I picked my daughter and her best friend up from school and my daughter said ‘We played this game at school, Mom, and you’re going to be upset,’” Gruber told The Post Saturday from her home in San Antonio.
“When she told me about kids getting up in class and posing as hookers, I almost crashed the car.”
The September incident was so disturbing, Gruber said, she pulled her daughter from the school and demanded an apology from administrators.
As part of the game, Gruber said her daughter and the other seventh graders in the Social Emotional Learning class at KIPP Poder Academy had to pair up and stand in the front of the room.
The kids were then told to strike poses — either as a hunter, pointing an imaginary gun at each other; as a scary bear with its paws up, or as a “seducing hooker,” with a hand on one hip and another behind their ear, the distraught mom said.
The goal of the game was unclear other than being some sort of “team building” exercise, said Gruber, who felt the game sexualized the children.
Her daughter declined to play the game, Gruber said.
The boys and girls were organized from youngest to oldest, with some allegedly bribed with candy to get them to play along, the daughter told the mom.
Gruber joined Fox & Friends to discuss the incident.
