"Amma, I am going to the Mall along with my wife and daughter."
"OK Son. You go ahead. Already my legs are paining. I am not interested in coming to the Mall. You go ahead."

In September of 2005, on the first day of school, Martha Cothren, a History teacher at Robinson High School in Little Rock, USA, did something not to be forgotten.
