Yes it happened but a bad person came out and hit me, she was angry, I did not become friends with anyone after that day

Hi MissDuckTram,

We're really sorry to hear you had this experience. Remember, it's very important to tell an adult that you trust, like a parent or teacher, when something like this happens.

 

Best wishes,
