A Story in Two Parts--Part I
I teach school in a place where everybody knows your name. Our kids are raised without a city mentality. They are mostly basketball players or farmboys.
Last year, a couple of junior boys were involved in an incident. These boys were good friends and just playing around. Boy #1 gets his pocketknife out and has it open. Boy #2--not knowing the knife is out or open--accidentally turns and swipes his forearm against the blade. Boy #2 needed instant help and eventually went to the hospital to receive care. Boy #1 was in school next day. This is the young man with the knife! I suppose "public opinion" eventually forced a reevaluation of the stituation and Boy #1 may have been suspended for a day about a week later.
End of story. See tomorrow for the conclusion of this great drama.
