Agreed. Spot on analysis. Reminds me of a conversation I have a couple of times yearly with one or more of my eighth grade students(usually a girl). Generally goes like this: Me: Hey (student), I’m noticing that since you came in today you seem really upset. What’s up with that? Student: Jesus Mr. K, That bitch, Brittany(any suburban girl name works) told my friends I was a total slut and gave beejers for money. Me: Well why are you mad?. Are you a slut? Student: stunned pause.. No way! Of course not! Me: Is it worth getting upset over something that isn’t true? How would Brittany feel if you didn’t give a second thought about the garbage she was talking? Student: I hadn’t thought about it that way yet. Screw her. Later.
