Ah, I couldn't do it. And I'd be arrested if I tried.
Still I remember being that young--if not quite that willful.
I admire you, but I don't envy you.
With luck, that little heathen will grow into a respectable young person
and cite you as a guiding influence.
You gotta believe, right?
Buy new rope.
Hang in.
Peace, Lee

Hi Lee :)
I have rope. Lots of rope!
Thanks for your comments - I dread to think where this little cherub will end up. I hope that he will remember me in years to come...Miss White used to make awesome junk models and she told the best stories, also, she was an expert at dodging stuff I chucked at her!!
Best wishes, Debra :)

Comment from Amenian Aypotheeno
This write is quite startling to me... what do you mean you have no nuts??? Ever heard the expression do your nut in, not talking wal or hazel here but that buzzing nut that comes up with so many writes for us to take in and ponder upon! Something tells me though that you could be a gold medallist if dodging low flying inanimate objects was a sport! Nice little write and make me really wonder what happens in schools nower days??? I mean I could pull some pranks, dropping trainers in water tanks, fake explosives in the sandpit but attacking the teachers and what not, hmmmm never even thought of that one :)

Hi Dale :)
Thanks for your great feedback.
Unfortunately, these things do happen in school nowadays... safety helmets and goggles should be compulsory uniform!
Ah well, tis what I've become used to.
Best wishes, Debra :)
Comment from patcelaw
When I was in elementary school there was a school bully. The boys dealt with him. Since we used outhouses at the time, the other boys took a can with a string tied to it. The would pee in the can and when the can was near full, the last boy put the can on a frame above the door, then they waited for the bully to be the next to visit the outhouse. You got i he opened the door and got a face full of pee.

Comment from Heather Knight
Oops! Why is the narrator supposed to protect this child (beast)? What is his job description? Learning support worker like you?
It's scary to think this is based on experience.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Maria,
Yep, it can be scary at times...and who knows why a child would behave in such a way?
It's 'our' responsibility to keep each child safe within the school environment (and all with our hands behind our backs!)
Thank you for your comments.
Best wishes as always, Debra :)
