After each 50 minute class period there is a break time of 10 minutes. I for one enjoy my break time
and will exit the classroom. What I see each day is the students will remain in their seats and not
move.
Do Chinese students have a bladder ?

I think break time is different for male and female teachers. You wonder when your students use the bathroom, and I wonder when they leave the freaking stall. Chinese girls just go in there and text or whatever for the entire break, massive bathroom line or not.
Mine tended to want to go to the toilet all throughout the class period.
don't understand the new generations. IN our times we all go out of the classroom to empty bladder, talk with each other in two or three, have some exercises, even the ones remained in classroom were not really staying alone. We just had so much fun out of classes.
I think it's the collectivist way they've been raised. I mean, Chinese citizens in general are not ones to be "scratching at the walls" trying to become independent and release themselves from being caged in a classroom. It's the twisted essence of Chinese culture to remain content within confined quarters. They really loves their walls! It also explains their apathy.

They have nothing better to do. Don't need to get up to play video games and go on QQ.
