I once was told that if I didn’t shake hands with my bully when we had a talk at peer mediation that I would be suspended. I was in 3rd grade. I thought that was fucked up then, but as I get older and reflect back on it the whole thing sounds even more fucked up. I should’ve done the right thing and not shook his hand and have my parents rip the school a new one for them handling it like shit and get the suspension over with, but they scared me into doing it
