ABSTRACT
‘When I am upset I suck my thumb. If I am really worried I will go and hide under a table. It’s something I’ve always done since I was little. I do it to make problems go away. My dad knows where to find me and he will know something is wrong and he will speak nice to me. When I do these things at school some teachers shout at me and the children laugh. That makes me really angry so I shout and scream back at them until the teacher has to get rid of me. When I am at home alone, I feel a lot safer. I’d rather get suspended and stay at home than come to school.’
