Have you ever gotten detention or been suspended?

I have never had detention, but I got suspended in middle school.
Spoiler:
Show
It still steams me to this day. A boy who was like 6'0 and very much bigger than me pushed me over, and I pushed him back. His head hit a countertop and one of his teeth got chipped. Not like I meant to do all that, it just happened. I reacted out of PTSD. Tbh I think the boy did it on purpose, you know how some people do that sh*t on purpose to like to sue and get money, I think that was the case because there was no way I was strong enough to do that much damage. This boy was like a foot taller than me and was probably 250 pounds. The boy got off because he was hurt and I wasn't. I got suspended for two weeks and the family thought about pressing charges, but I wrote an apology letter about how 'sorry' I was and hoped they could forgive me. Apparently, the dad wanted to, but the mom didn't. Stupid sh*t.

I got detentions a few times but never got suspended.
I notice schools suspends kids for silly things these days, that wouldn't have warranted a suspension when i was at school...

Detentions a fair few times, often for idiotic and trivial reasons

Loads of detentions.
No suspensions (though those were often due to a social worker mediating between me and whoever I was fighting and agreeing to not fight again or to take Isolation or in school all day detention)
One exclusion from 2nd school and I had to take my gcses in an alternative detention school for troubled kids. It wasn't living in.
Dropped out seeeeeeveral times, I repeated a couple years, finally went to uni thru clearing at 19 about to be 20. So yea.

Why did you fight?

My other fight in primary was with someone 2 years older than me, I fought him for taking my football, so I beat him up with a bat.

Basically just this kid that everyone was supposedly scared of, tried to torment me. Then I had to beat him up...
