However, there is one day a year when torture is acceptable and that day is called "field day."
This is the beginning of the end of the school year. Standardized testing is over for the year, so teachers everywhere are beginning to plan "fun" activities and "rewards" for their students. Maybe they'll get to watch a movie. Maybe there will be pizza. Maybe they will tie dye shirts in art class. Almost inevitably, they will do something called a reward that is actually far from fun. It actually more closely resembles child torture. Kids everywhere will fake sick and hope to stay home from school, and then cry when their parents make them attend. "Oh, Patsy. You are just exaggerating. Teachers don't like to torture kids. You should know that," is what you are probably thinking.
