Did you ever experience a really unfair moment when you were a kid? Elementary school is difficult when you don't really know how to get your point or opinion across without being seen as a kid with an attitude. It can be frustrating as well because adults look at you as just a "kid" who really has no opinion, especially when within the confines of school! I just wondered what your unfair moments were?
For me I have a good example.
When I was in third grade we were given a tray with a chicken leg, mashed potatoes, apple sauce, and a bread roll. I mixed my mashed potatoes and apple together in one bowl (which I still do to this day 😀) and proceeded to put it between my roll to make a sandwich!
One of the teachers on cafeteria lunch duty came over and said "You like to play with your food so much? I am going to stand here until you eat all of your sandwich. Wasting food is bad...blah blah.."
So I proceeded to eat it without a second though and she asked me "So how did it taste?"
So being a kid I was honest and said "It tasted really good, I love eating it that way."
She said I was giving her an attitude and gave me silent lunch for two days! What an unfair moment 😡
