Too much information

Student scratching his arm in the lunchroom : "I've really got eczema bad."

Me: "It looks like you do!"

Student continuing to scratch: "It really gets really, really bad every time I wet the bed...."

Me: "Whoa, whoa, whoa.... remember about sharing too much information." (We've discussed the topic of 'Too Much Information' before. On more than one occasion. On more occasions than I have fingers.)

Student still scratching: "Oh yeah, yeah. Ok. My eczema gets really bad every time I go number one in my bed."

Trust me when I tell you that you don't want to know what happens when he swallows too much gum. For some students, there are absolutely no secrets. None.
