Mary Beth Hurt

thought it was cool to feel needed and useful. However, as I got older, I realized that my parents had no idea how to read bank statements and that they had always depended on me a little too much. It hurt me to resent my parents for not being able to travel about our community without my help. It hurt me to realize that my parents struggled with basic math.

I was at hhhhoooommmmeeee, and I ssssaaaawwww...” We despised the way her heart-shaped lips gawked open as she slurred her words. Mary Beth sounded like a lost, bleating lamb. She was the most entertaining character to imitate when my friends and I were at slumber parties. We all perfected the rhythmic pattern of her speech. And then there was her appearance.

The school had set up a methodology permitting understudies to wear a couple of political pictures, however had disallowed the wearing of armbands disagreeing the Vietnam War.
