A sharp pain cuts through my heart. “No,” my brain screams, “This can’t happen. I won’t let it happen. They can’t tear down my son!” I picture myself marching into the school and telling those students and teacher off. I shake the thought from my mind, “What can I do? How can I protect him?”
Later I remember what author Brene Brown said about how she handles the critics and rude comments. “That’s it! I can teach that to my son so he can protect himself.” Hope surges through me.
