Teacher's Pet: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

This is the kid at school that nobody likes. Not because they're stupid, or annoying, or a bully. But because they suck up to the teacher. They'll bring the teacher the traditional apple every day, they'll ''always'' volunteer to answer any question, and more often then not they'll be [[The Informant]] to the teacher, tattling on the other students whenever they make the smallest infringement of the rules.

 

Needless to say, most of the other students tend to despise this person, and they're often portrayed as a traitor to the rest of the class. Typical of series that are set in elementary school.

 

 

{{examples}}

== [[Comic Books]] ==

* [[The Beano|The Bash Street Kids]] has Cuthbert Cringeworthy. The only pupil in the class who wears a uniform or gave [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|Teacher]] any respect whatsoever.

* Chichikov from ''[[Dead Souls]]'' became this when he had a [[Sadist Teacher]] who'd give the best grades to, well, teacher's pets and bad grades to smart kids who were even a little bit unruly - or showed too much smartness.

 

* Annie in ''[[Community]]''. For example, instead of putting his binder back, Señor Chang drops it on the floor and orders Annie to pick it up.
