Think before you act!!!
I am overcome with regret for what has happened. The realization of how close-minded I was is maddening. It was not my intention to be harsh and not give accurate answer, but it was what happened. It may have been brought by lack of preparation causing me to focus on the instruction part that says, “You could lie or say anything you want”. I wish I could have dealt it in a different way.
Moral lesson: I am a terrible teacher if I am one.
