I disagree. She was uncomfortable, afraid, and probably wished she was anywhere but there. But she did the job the school gave her to do as best she could. That's not being a moron, that's being brave.
The morons were the adults that pawned off a disturbed, mentally ill student on a fellow student instead of dealing with him themselves.
I understand what you are saying. If it were my daughter I would tell her that peer counseling in high school is a bs resume checkbox. It’s not worth risking more physical harm to look good for a college recruiter.
But again, if you had thrown an apple at a table with the velocity that this kid describes...would you have been in that school long?
