>N.B. child and youth advocate raises alarm about use of seclusion rooms in schools

In 6th grade, early 90s, I was a straight-A student, a good kid. I missed a lay up playing b-ball during recess and said "that sucks". "Sucks" was on a list of unspeakable words that only the 6th graders at the public elementary school were punished for saying. What was that punishment??? Well, I saw a rough kid push down a teacher and punch her in the face. He got 2 weeks of out-of-school suspension. I got the next step down: 2 weeks of in-school-suspension. I sat in a small room with a desk and a chair with a one-way mirror into the principal's office. I got all my work in the morning, probably finished it all in 30-60 minutes, and had my lunch brought to me while I sat in there all fucking day. A few things in my life happened before then, but that was the day I lost trust in the adults. Luckily, I didn't get diddled. I think we actually had a decent principal who got talked into that social experiment by the nascent communist forces and one very old bitch of a professor. Problem really was that no one stood up for me. Not my teacher, not my parents, no one. Stand up together or kneel MFers. Still bitter. Kek.
