A while ago, I teased a student at my school.
Perhaps I was a little too mean.
In response, a handful of my students demanded that I send an apology note to the victim of my words, because, according to them, I had gone over the line.
Sweet but annoying.
Grudgingly, I sent the apology.
I received this in return:
___________________________
Dear Mr. Dicks.
It’s okay, but keep teasing me. Please because if you don’t tease me, I have no reason to prank you and laugh with you and try to make you mad and tease you back! And that’s a fun thing. It makes school fun. It makes me love school even more. And I know you’re kidding! I’m not dumb!
