I went to Catholic school, by the way. Nuns, who have forsaken family, should not be in charge of children just because they are female.
Imagine a sensitive small child, from a divorced family, that doesn't know how to walk up stairs. Who tentatively goes up one step at a time. Right foot, bring up left to same step. Then right foot again, bring up left.
Then have a nun drag him to the principal's office to be beaten with a board for being slow. How it ended, I don't remember.
