“They’re a lot of fun if your not the butt of the joke.”

Everyone in that class was the butt of the joke. Probably they enjoyed it.

The same happened to me in 6th grade, everyone got an “award”.

I didn’t need a counselor, nor did I want my parents to call a newspaper.

Read post #246 how would you like your son or daughter to be spoken about in such a way. These types of affairs always start out innocent enough but invariably get out of hand. I’ve seen it over and over. And I’ve seen careers ended with a good teacher exclaiming how they can’t believe they let it happen.

I would have died if I ever got an award like that.

I was a very sensitive child.

I don’t think it’s right.

I look at the example Christ set for us, and I don’t think he’d be giving out these kinds of awards.
