For unlucky children, relatives bear more

In elementary school, there was an abnormal-looking classmate A in the class. He has about a little cerebral palsy, his IQ is lower than his peers, he wears thick glasses, and his physical coordination is worse than that of ordinary classmates. Treating him, the class is divided into two factions, most students choose to ignore him; a small number of students will bully him. Every other month or so, there will be an explosive siege during the lunch break, the purpose is to drive him crazy, and then collectively tease. At the end of each session, A would pick up a chair to resist, yelling like crazy, and when the students felt that the goal was achieved, they would disperse with satisfaction. And A started crying all by himself, until the teacher called his dad to school, he recovered his peace. A will ask for leave in the next few days.

In my impression, A likes to tell his classmates the story of his father. In his eyes, his father is the most powerful person in the world and can do everything.

I have met A's father, a man who looks very young. The students all said that A's mother is a fool, so A is not normal.

Later, I transferred to another school, and I don't know the status of A.

I still remember clearly that after A was bullied, he would wait for his father to arrive before putting down the "weapon" in his hand, hugging his father's shoulders, and crying like a release. And his father's eyes, tears conceal anger and perseverance.
