    This is probably stretching the definition of strange, but I got in school suspension in middle school for having 3 tardies (aka arriving late to school). I rode the school bus to school each day, I had no control over whether I was late or not, so I find it strange to be punished for something like that.

      Did anyone else get in school suspension? That seems incredibly harsh.

      I got a detention in elementary school because my mom made me late too many times. I wasn’t even old enough to walk to school yet so it had to be 1st or 2nd grade. I was very confused and sad that day.

      I don’t remember what my mom said or even if I mentioned it to her. I wish I knew my teachers reasoning even if it was bullshit.
