THE GIRL DOWNSTAIRS

WE WAS LIVING IN CROWLEY LOUISANA TERI AND CAT WAS ABOUT 4-5 YEARS OLD. WE LIVED IN AN UPSTAIRS APARTMENT WITH A FAMILY DOWNSTAIRS. THEY HAD A 13-14 YEAR OLD, A SLOW LEARNER ON ABOUT A 4-5 YEAR OLD LEVEL. TERI AND CAT WOULD GO OUTSIDE AND THIS GIRL, BEING A LOT BIGGER WOULD CHASE THEM DOWN AND HOLD THEM DOWN. ONE AT A TIME OF COURSE. I TALKED TO THE MOTHER DOWNSTAIRS AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING SHE COULD DO AND I SHOULD KEEP MY GIRLS INSIDE.

I EXPLAINED TO TERI THAT I COULD NOT BEAT UP THE GIRL AND THE POLICE WOULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. IT WAS HER PROBLEM AND I WOULD HELP HER SOLVE HER PROBLEM. I TAUGHT HER HOW TO MAKE A FIST AND PUNCH SHE PUNCHED MY HANDS OVER AND OVER A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER SHE WENT OUTSIDE TO PLAY. THE GIRL CHASHED HER AND THREW HER TO THE GROUND. TERI’S FIST CAME UP

I HAD THE MOTHER AT MY DOOR COMPLAINING TO ME ABOUT THE GIRL’S BLOODY NOSE. I TOLD HER THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO AND MAYBE SHE SHOULD KEEP HER DAUGHTER INSIDE.

A FINAL NOTE TERI-CAT-AND THIS GIRL BECAME FRIENDS WITHIN A FEW DAYS AND PLAYED VERY WELL TOGETHER.
