My brother’s problems in school had a profound effect on me. As far as I am concerned, I was just the opposite. I learned to read by the sight method and for the most part I did well, but not that well. While Lee had academic problems, I had social problems. I was too quick for the class and so I got bored and continuously got into trouble. I talked too much, ran around too much, didn’t pay attention, slept in class. In brief, I was a pain in the neck for the teacher. I remember one incredible day when the teacher, probably at her wit’s end, put me under her desk. I had to stay there for what seemed like an eternity and do nothing. As a super athletic child, it drove me crazy. So I always got “unsatisfactory” marks on the “deportment” part of the report card. ① 선생님에게 골칫거리였다.
