Turtle I’m a slow runner dear god please let there be someone behind me to read this shirt

This is so true! I still look at Turtle I’m a slow runner dear god please let there be someone behind me to read this shirt the way teachers and my classmates looked at me when I was in school. Very difficult to get rid of that conditioning. Emotions never seemed of any importance back then. Marks were what determined your worth. Everything else neglected. For a child, it often becomes too difficult. I remember skipping school because I never wanted to face the kids or the teachers if there was a test or if I didn’t do my homework. And that often led to more neglect by teachers and more teasing by classmates. School is such an important part of a child’s life. It’s so important to make it a more healthy and safe place where a child doesn’t feel intimidated or insecure. Children should feel safe to express themselves in school and be comfortable with their weaknesses.
