I still remember the time in grade school when the teacher had to step out of the room and several kids began acting up, when the teacher returned we all got punished.
I know exactly how Susie feels. I’m the one who got banned from my senior Prom because Johnny puked in the bathroom at a school dance a couple weeks earlier. I’m the one who got blamed when Kevin broke a porcelain doll at a friends party. I’m the one who got spanked for saying pirate ship when my mother heard pile of ….
Reminds me of a time at our dinner table while we were having spaghetti and my brother said something so hilarious that I could not stop laughing. And the spaghetti sauce went up my nose and made me laugh even harder. My Dad got so mad but I was the one who got blamed because I could not control my laughter and so I got sent to my room! That punishment still bugs me over 50 years later!!!
There is a book, Susie, written over the course of a thousand or so years.In it is a chapter about a man named Job. It may not have the answer, but you can take some comfort that people have been asking the same kind of questions for millennia.
If you compare your fortunes with those of others, you will be disappointed. – I think I read that in a Chinese Fortune Cookie. My philosophy is based on a wide variety of readings.
Hang in there, Susie. I once told my father that something “wasn’t fair.” Dad put his hand on my shoulder and said, “Son, ‘fair’ is a four letter word beginning with ‘f’ that should never be used in polite society.”

Typical. Teachers and referies don’t see the bad behavior, they see the reaction to the bad behavior. You will just have to get him later.

This will resolve appropriately. Calvin’s digging his own “grave” by continuing to badger Suzie.
