I feel really guilty.

I bullied my teacher for a whole year. After realising what I had done a year later I feel really guilty. I was in alot of trouble for shoutin abusing, pushin her over and makin fun of her. Now I really do not know how to say sorry.

I think she will laugh in my face now because she has probably just forgotten about it.

How can I say sorry without gettin in trouble or her just laughin?

Im scared to get in trouble for talking to her though.

She may freak out if I approach her.

I have lost all my confidence, I only talk to my mates and I really am to shy to talk to her.

But what if she has just forgotten about it all and is not bothered. Then I will look like the fool.

kenny agony auntI can't believe that a teacher, an authoritive figure at a school allowed a child to push her over and hurl abuse at her over a 12 month period.

However the answer to your question would be to go back and apologise face to face.

A female reader, burningbridges Canada +, writes (24 June 2007):

Say sorry. Write her a letter if you're too shy to do it to her face. Teachers work in a profession which is designed to bring enlightenment to their charges and thus she'll have the framework to understand you've matured.

Maybe something like this?

"Dear Mrs. X

Hi, I was a student in your class. I feel really badly about how I behaved. I shouldn't have treated you that way and I feel really guilty about it."

Sending flowers will also help, and it'll make you seem less threatening if you're carrying a big blend of mixed blossoms, if you seek her out to say sorry in person.
