Rose’s Tale: The Strap – The Wooden Compass – The Endless Abuse at School

With her mother’s permission, Author Gaynor Jones shares Rose’s Tale.  Born in England in 1943, during a time of turmoil, poverty and pain.  Rose had a relatively normal childhood until she entered Grade Two.  Her physical and verbal abuse began at the hands of her teachers.  She was a cruel and ill-tempered woman who focused her abuse on Rose.  Her only reprieve was summer vacation.

As the abuse continues throughout her school years, Rose becomes a sad and sullen child.  It isn’t until she meets Glynn that her life changes and happiness begins.

This is Rose’s Tale as told by Gaynor, her daughter.
