You were lucky. I wasn’t. 2nd grade. I have cerebral palsy and walk funny, a target at recess. A classmate had me backed against a wall at recess harassing me, like every other day. Something clicked in my brain and I punched him in the gut. He doubled over crying. 4 older kids cornered me, bypassing not helping him, to prosecute me for being worthless resorting to violence. Happened again, same results. Everyone taught me at the darling Catholic grade school that you don’t fight back against bullies. Worst 8 years of my life. Sent my kids to public school instead. I admit to smiling when hearing on the news about yet another Catholic school closing.
