{{quote|I once went to pick up my older son, now fifteen. There had been a fight in his class, I was informed by a student teacher, and Bobby was involved.
'''Author''': Who started it?
The student teacher looked at me with sheer loathing. ''Men''
'''Teacher:''' I don't think that matters.
'''Author:''' But of course it matters.
'''Teacher:''' Why? So we can lay blame?
'''Author:''' That's part of it. After all there is a big difference between aggression and self-defense. Or do you want them all to be little Ghandis?
