Another Memory Of School

The worst Teacher I ever had was Mrs. Lesser, my 8th grade English teacher. She constantly humiliated me in front of the whole class because my handwriting was (and still is) horrible. I tried to do my best, but it never seemed to be good enough for her. I guess she hated me, because she never did that to any of the other kids in the class. Man, I was soooooo glad when I was through with her!

Hey, don't worry about people like that. I had two teachers who tried to humiliate me on a daily basis, two different years. One of them did it because (yes, she admitted this) I had scored better than the son of a friend of hers on some aptitude tests. The other did it because my parents wouldn't go to the church where her husband preached.

Bottom line: these people have serious issues, if they need to target kids to feel better. I just wish more kids who go through this stuff realized at the time it wasn't their fault and nothing they could have done would have pleased that person.
