Whoever said drama started in 6th grade, was sadly mistaken.

So toady, while in the middle of my reading lesson, a girl had her hand up. I looked over to call on her, and saw that she had 4 red slits going across her arm. 5th grade. 5th. I knew that this girl was having problems at home, but seriously. This girl is old for her class, but this is insane. I didn't think that the whole thing really effected me, until tonight when it was all I could seem to think about. I thought that in elementary school, that the kids had no idea that anything like this was possible. They are supposed to be innocent. I just want to shake her and tell her to start being a kid. I don't know how I am going to look at her tomorrow.
