Tongue-cleaning

No,Suzette, I would have asked Leo politely to correct his misdeed and I would have suggested he use his tongue as penance. Afterall was not humiliation the tool often used by our educators to help us grow up to be the best we could be. Thank god ,times have changed,because our generation suffered emotional and psychological damage at the hands of some,left to "direct us"in the right directions. I received my First Holy Communion at Ressurection ascension Church in Elmhurst. We had a nun who would repeatedly place pieces of soap in the mouths of boys who answered her back. On one horrifying occasion,the victim began to cry,spewing bubbles and vomit all over himself. She made him sit in the pew,without even allowing him to rinse his mouth or clean himself up. She humiliated him and abused him in EVERY sense of the word ,this not only scarred him but it affected all of us who witnessed this behavior,coming from a nun. Today,she'd be arrested,and rightfully so. Don't worry I have no wrath,when I get upset I resolve. And what can any of you possibly do that would warrant my disapproval?
