For My Brother, Who Needs A Confidence Boost

[franciscanheart]

Please pray for my little brother (17) who is having trouble in school. One of the teachers he most admires shamed him in front of his peers yesterday and he cried there in front of all of them. My heart is so broken for him. Please pray my brother finds peace and healing from that situation and that he will not carry it too far in his life. He is capable and strong; he simply requires guidance and some skill-building. Everyone makes mistakes. We shouldn't shame our children.

eta: My brother has several learning disabilities and requires modifications at times to work at the same level as his peers. It makes me even angrier to consider that his teacher was being unnecessarily cruel to him, even knowing this information.

I guess we can tack on prayers for me, that I find it in my heart not to knock some skulls together...
