Xtra Help.. Misunderstood

As a young girl I was always drawn towards the bad boy type. Yea in grade school I had the regular boy crush; school boy, jock, athlete, even the class clown? Eventually my attention would end up focused on the boy in the back of the class, doing too much or nothing at all. Driving the poor teachers crazy by just the mere occupying of space in their classrooms? Back in the 70's the schools often identified bad kids with being challenged, and if you were challenged, you were crazy and if you were crazy you were going to "The EH" class. EH meaning "extra help!" What I didn't understand is the same kids that were in "The EH" class, were the same kids walking around the neighborhood with us everyday? They didn't need extra help in school they were just bad!
