When I was in grade 2 my bullies would always make noise in class and our teacher forced the whole class to write lines because of it. I felt this was a deep injustice on two fronts and decided to resist, refusing to write anything.
This kicked off a series of events that lead to me being brought in front of school board officials who made me sign a document stating I wouldn’t cause any more problems for the school. I merrily signed it and then once again refused to accept punishment for something I didn’t do, and they tried to kick me out.
For some reason the school board was surprised to learn that 8 year olds cannot form a legal contract.
