Aaron, who teaches third grade – kids around eight or nine years old – took to his TikTok page to share a video detailing the present.
“Weirdest gift I ever received as a 3rd grade teacher,” he began his clip.
“An 8 x 10 framed photo of a student…”
And if that wasn’t weird enough, he then added “’s MUM!”
People couldn’t resist weighing in on the gift, with one writing: “I give her credit for her confidence.”


“I would have given you the whole damn album,” another added.
“They were just shooting their shot,” someone else commented.
With Aaron replying: “Solid attempt.”
“I can’t blame her,” another wrote.
As someone else joked: “Need a new teaching job?
“My school is hiring! LOL.”
“Can’t blame her. Take it as a compliment,” another suggested.
“Lol when my oldest was in grade 1, he told his principal that I was lonely,” someone else added.
“He asked me out. I politely turned him down.”
“Well, we all know why… At least it wasn’t printed on a mug. I get way too many mugs,” another teacher laughed.
