The teacher, after playtime, used to always call out "Clean-up time- Everyone help everyone!". That was our cue to put away all of the toys.

Apparently, one day I got sick of picking up after the other kids. You see, at home, if I played with one toy, I was expected to put it away before pulling out the next thing. At nursery school, some of the other kids used to throw things all over the place and then at clean-up time, put away one thing while we all picked up the rest of the junk.

I started refusing to pick up anything but my own toys. I saw the logic in being responsible for those messes I made, but not so much in picking up after other kids.

I was scolded for this, told I wasn't a helpful person. My protests fell on deaf ears.

Fast forward 24 years- nothing has changed at all. Nothing.
