I had a very similar experience.

A few years ago, there was this boy in my class who would never pay attention to the teacher. He would bother everyone, interrupt, and purposely disobey the teacher, he even destroyed someone’s craft at Christmas (honestly, I don’t even know why we were making crafts at that age XD). Then he was absent one whole week and we didn’t know why. I asked the teacher and she said that he was in Disney World. She then told me his younger brother had cancer and the trip was paid for by Make A Wish. From that day on, I began to defend him and stand up for him. He probably needed attention (similar to your story, Minnie) and he also had an older brother who had broken his arm. He was a middle child with sibling who had health problems. The next year, he wasn’t in my class, but next door to mine. I still stood up for him, but we were never friends. This year, I found out he moved. I still pray for his brother and I hope he is ok.
