Author's Response: No. In fact, I encourage that behavior!

What a great idea! I have a traumatic story of a bully and a teacher who wouldn't listen to me, so I'm really feeling Pam on this one :)
Author's Response: Adults are just mean when they don't listen. I know, I am probably guilty of this. I mean, just yesterday, C was crying in the car, saying J hit her, J said he barely touched her. I just told them to behave, because I was driving. So, who knows, I could have scared C for life.

This takes me back to my childhood, I once hit my sister in the arm, not hard at all, and she used her other hand to squeeze that part of her arm so that by the time she showed our mother it was bright red and looked like I had really slapped her good. My mother wouldn't listen to my explanation either. But this chapter was cute and very realistic. (Too bad Pam wasn't old enough to call him Maxi-pad! )
Author's Response:
This was slightly based on when I got detention because some other kid scratched me. I got sent to the principals office, and was like, "see this mark! its from HER" and he was like, well, you need detention! WTF! i swear, adults sometimes don't give enough of a chance.
and yeah, i don't think maxi pad would mean much at that age. haha. clever though! maybe when she meets max again she can throw that one out there.

Nice story. Of course she hates her name as a kid, don't most of us? And, please, how many times does she have to say it, Roy? DCMP!
Nice job. Especially the end.
Author's Response:
I mianly hated my name because there were A THOUSAND of us. I swear, naming your child like the most popular name in the country will just come back to bite you.
Thanks for the review :)

Oh, we hate mean old Max. And those names sound oddly familiar...Hee (Great start, Em!)
Author's Response: I know, Max calls Pam stoopid he deserves to be pushed! (actually, haha, this was slightly based on a time in kindergarten, when i got punished when someone else scratched me. totally unfair. like 15 years later and i am still bitter about it)
