“I’m originally from Scotland, and I moved to the US when I was nine years old. I went into third grade at this small private school. I have learning disabilities, and on top of that, I was experiencing really bad depression and homesickness. I literally cried at school for WEEKS just because of how sad I was. I kept forgetting my homework either at home or I couldn’t complete it because I’d forgotten the necessary tools to do it at school. One day, I forgot my time tracker at school, so I couldn’t do my math homework. My mum wrote a note to my math teacher, and when she saw it, she came into my homeroom classroom and screamed at me in front of everyone.”
“It was so bad that my language arts teacher next door could hear it and came in to comfort me as I sat there crying. Meanwhile, my homeroom teacher sat there and did nothing.
The yelling continued for at least 10 minutes. That day, my mum picked me up from school, and when she asked how my day had gone, I started crying and told her what happened.
My mum is a ‘you know not to mess with her kids’ kind of person — she goes into ‘Mama Bear Mode!’ She did an immediate u-turn back to the school and got the teacher fired.”
