When I was in 2nd grade, an instructor saying to recycle told my class and me that poop and pee went into her office all the time. I kept trying to hold in my pee and poop from then on, because I didn't want to make the instructor's office any more of a mess than it was. I didn't find out the truth until YEARS later
