Feeling bitter

Got tricked by some 17 year olds today.

Me: Where is your friend? Why is he not here today?
Guy 1: He died already.
Me: He is your good friend, you shouldn't curse him.
Guy 2: ok, ok, he went to the dentist.
Me (don't recall seeing any dentist in the school today): He went to the dentist in school or outside?
Girl (sniggering): you really believe he went to the dentist? bluff you one lar.
And all 3 laugh out loudly.

I have spent 3 whole years of my life with them, nurturing and educating them. This is a group of teenagers whom I've grown to love and trust. I don't understand why they need to trick me this way. Do i look so gullible to them? Or am I wrong to trust them? I told them straight in the face that I am disappointed that they made a joke out of this. I asked the girl that if I don't trust them, am I suppose to be on my guard all the time, and to question every word they say? I can't live this way.

It feels so awful to be tricked and laughed at by people whom I have loved and trusted. And I am crying as I blog this.

Bathing Independently

Managed to train QY to bathe independently. She is able to soap herself and rinse clean. My main concern was whether she can reach her back, which she manages very well. But still can't shampoo yet cos she is terrify of water getting into her eyes.
