Teacher Robin said a lot, feeling that this child simply did not realize the problem.
She turned the tables and said, “Actually, do you want to hear what the teacher has to say? The teacher beats you well! They should beat you more, and it’s wise to knock all your teeth out.”
Peter: “What?”
Teacher Robin: “If anyone gives me an offensive nickname and pisses me off, I will take off my work clothes and roll up my sleeves and beat him up!”
“So you just haven’t met a mean person, just wait!”
Peter: “……?”
He thought it was new the first time he heard such words.
Some people say, forget it, it’s normal for kids to fight.
The mother said: nicknames are no big deal, hitting people is wrong! ……
He had a younger brother at home, and every time he fought with his brother, their mother always asked who started it.
Whoever started it would be criticized.
Then, one time, he gave his brother the nickname “annoying goblin.” His brother started crying and hitting him at the same time.
After understanding what happened, their mother said, “It’s wrong for your brother to give you a nickname, but should you have retaliated? If you retaliate, you are the one in the wrong!”
It was then that he had an epiphany. So, it could be like this.
As long as he didn’t start the fight, it wouldn’t be his fault.
At the same time, he learned how to provoke and attack others with words, making them initiate the fight!
The benefit of doing so was that he would always be the one receiving favoritism.
Besides this reason, Peter didn’t feel like he was in the wrong. This is because his mother often called his brother a crybaby, a pest, and she even called him slow and mischievous, like a little mischief.
So he never thought there was anything wrong with nicknames. In fact, giving nicknames would draw more attention to him.
When school started, nobody knew him, and nobody paid attention to him. But after he started giving others nicknames, gradually, everyone knew him, and they would playfully interact with him.
Teacher Dorcas taught other students to be more generous, not concerned. Peter had never received any substantial punishment, gradually believing that “having a nickname” was a way of communication.
…
The school nurse quietly pulled Teacher Robin aside.
“Um, Teacher Robin, is it appropriate to talk to a child like that?”
Which teacher directly tells a student that they were beaten up well, and it would be best if their front teeth were knocked out?
Teacher Robin snorted, “So what if I said it like that?”
The generation who grew up in the 1980s swallowed their grievances, the generation born in the 1990s nodded obediently, but the generation born in the 2000s was different. The post-2000 generation rectified the workplace.
She didn’t know how to teach in the 1980s and 1990s. All she knew was what she should say and what she was afraid of—afraid of hurting the child’s fragile heart, the fear of distorting the child. But why didn’t anyone consider her fragile heart?
Who isn’t just a big baby?
She, still a “child,” has to teach a bunch of children and deal with chaotic parents. Why doesn’t anyone consider whether her heart is fragile or not? Why isn’t anyone afraid of hurting her feelings?
Hmmph.
Teacher Robin lectured easily, not knowing if Peter had learned anything. But too much lecturing can easily provoke a rebellious mentality. So, when Peter’s mother arrived, Teacher Robin left as well.
“Ah… Teacher Robin, this is the dress I bought for you… It’s not…”
Peter’s mother chased after her, explaining the situation.
Teacher Robin stopped in her tracks and said with exasperation, “Peter’s mother, keep it for yourself! I said no gifts, no flattery. Anyway, you wouldn’t understand, right?”
She held back for a moment but couldn’t contain herself, bluntly saying, “Your behavior has already caused me trouble and made me disgusted! If you keep it up, maybe you should consider switching classes and finding a homeroom teacher who gets along with you!”
After saying that, Teacher Robin walked away directly.
Mrs. Szell stood still, her mouth agape…
Changing classes… Changing classes wasn’t an option. She had indeed considered it before. Who wouldn’t? After all, this homeroom teacher was too young and didn’t appreciate parents’ goodwill.
But now she didn’t want to change anymore…
Peter’s mother had no choice but to retreat and ask, “What did your teacher say to you?”
Peter muttered, “Nothing!”
Mrs. Szell didn’t believe him. She could hear Teacher Robin’s voice from afar, but it was just not clear enough.
This disobedient child doesn’t tell her anything and causes trouble every day, making her angry.
“Let me tell you, it’s not right to give people nicknames! Afterwards, apologize to Lilly when you return to class. Do you hear me?”
A question mark slowly formed on Peter’s forehead ❓
How strange. Wasn’t it just yesterday that they said Lilly’s sister hitting him was definitely the other party’s fault?
Weren’t they supposed to refuse to apologize to them and have no contact with them?
They even told him to ignore Lilly when he saw her at school!
Why the sudden change of heart today?
“Why?” Peter asked.
Mrs. Szell frowned and said, “Just remember it!” I’ve told you so much, but you don’t understand. I’m doing it all for your benefit. Just do as I say!”
“If you have the chance, talk to Lilly more often. If she needs help, offer your assistance. Do you understand?”
Peter was speechless. “I was fighting with them just a few days ago, and now they want me to bow down to her? No way, absolutely not!”
After saying that, he got dressed and ran off.
It nearly drove Peter’s mother into madness.
Outside the hallway.
Harem Spirit and Unlucky Ghost were wandering around, claiming to collect firsthand campus information for Lilly. They aspired to make her the new era’s school bully… no, top student.
They witnessed the whole scene.
“This child… lacks society’s beatings!” Harem Spirit shook his head. “There’s no hope.”
The Unlucky Ghost’s eyes lit up. “How can you say there’s no hope? As subordinates of Hades, how can we just stand by and watch a flower of our country go astray…”
It didn’t matter that he lacked society’s beatings. With their kind hearts, they would surely help him make up for regrets and accept ghostly beatings.
