Re:

Well Ciel when I was about 6 the old headmistress came into the class summons by the teacher. There was a little gypsy boy he just sat vacantly. He did not respond to the H.M.

So she thumped him in the back until he slumped down without murmuring.

My Mother told me that the Male teacher would pinch the girl's arms if they did wrong.

Sometimes a little power is dangerous.

I suspect there was an underlying hatred of children in schools like that, maybe rooted in jealousy and in the belief that nothing mattered more than convention and strict adherence to it. Children being shaped to expectations.  It makes my heart burn with the injustice and stupidity of it all!

Those wartime days were something to say the least. Nowadays, it seems like wartime is far away.
