When I was in fifth grade I had to go two days without talking for saying "shut-up" to a classmate. This wasn't my teacher's policy but some snub-nosed temoporary sub that my teacher didn't agree with but complied with the new "rules" until the sub left. It was a punishment that was more hurtful than constructive, and since I've grown older I realized how wrong it was.

LOL, how wrong was it? Do you see a therapist for post traumatic stress syndrome?

No, because I think I got over it, but sometimes I wonder.... LOL- maybe that's why I talk too much now. But you know how it is - certain times in your childhood where you were wronged and couldn't do anything about it, you look back at those times and wonder if karma worked it out already or if the injustice is still outstanding. The adult me would sure like to go back in time to the mid 80s and that class, protect the child me, and right the wrong. Of course if I had a time machine, there'd be other priorities first, and maybe I'd never have time to post this.
