Who the hell has the arrogance to downvote these stories? I find that despicable!

AMG maybe they don’t like that they had to go through that experience? I always wonder too, imagine the courage it takes to do this and live through this and people thinking they have any right at all to share an opinion less then supporting ... 🥺...

I could cry over 3rd. Grade. Judgments and heaping on of shame and punishments. I ended up locked up in a supply room for that year. The Principal asked me if I would become a criminal. A hateful scowl and crone.
