Be kind...

This one is difficult to come up with.

I hate to cop to this but it is the truth: I learned as a kid to tune out when someone prattles on and on.

My mother was an elementary school teacher and everythin but everything was a "lesson" for her to teach me something.

My worst subject was math. I really hated it. There actually is a good reason for this which I will spare you before someone wants to tell me to shut the f up.

Anyway, my mother would sit me at the kitchen table, lean over and with her smokers breath ( she long ago quit smoking but used to smoke a pack a day when I was a kid) and would go on and on trying to get my brain to understand fractions. I was aged 9 or 10.

Inside my head I would be screaming shut the f up, let me escape but perfected the art of nodding my head, looking interested and acting like I understood what she was saying. I may even have disassociated a little as I could look on the outside as though I was listening and understanding but did not have a clue as to what she was talking about.

When I went to college, I had to get tutors or never would have passed chemistry, statistics or pharmacology! To this day, sometimes I still get stuck on a fraction.
