3．My teachers discovered my paper-thin，worn-out clothes，my bad body smell，the countless hurts and burns，and why I hunted for food from dustbins.My second-grade teacher，Ms.Moss，asked the headmaster for help.The next morning，my mother，an alcoholic（酒鬼），and the headmaster had a private meeting.Then Ms.Moss lost her job and I never saw her again.
Things went worse.I lived in the downstairs garage，did all chores，but received almost no food.My mother even changed my name "David" into "it"，and punished my brothers if they gave me food，used my real name or even looked at me.
My only safe haven（港灣） were my teachers.They did their best to make me feel like a normal child.Sitting in the garage and shivering from the cold，I closed my eyes，pictured my teacher's face and felt warm inside.
One Friday afternoon，I looked at my headteacher，Mr.Ziegler.I knew he felt my pain.I bowed my head in respect，somehow hoping for a wonder.
On March 5，1973，my hopes were answered.Four teachers，the school nurse and the headmaster decided to ask the local government for help.Because of my condition，I was immediately placed into protective custody（監護）.Before I left，they hugged me one by one. ▲ They reminded me of Ms.Moss.As a child called "it"，I felt I wasn't worth their trouble.
One teacher gently whispered， "No matter the result，whatever happens to us，this is something we must do.As teachers...if we can influence one child's life...This is the true meaning of our job."
After a round of goodbyes，with tears running down my face，I promised I'd never forget them and do my best to make them proud someday.
On March 5，1993，I returned to Thomas Edison Elementary and presented my teachers with my first book，A Child Called "It".I looked at them，tears running down their faces，and said， "As a child I learned that teachers have but one goal：to somehow make a difference in a child's life.My four teachers，school nurse and headmaster risked their jobs to save the life of a child called "it".I cannot，will not forget their courage and belief.Twenty years ago，I promised to my teachers.And tonight I renew（重申） my promise."
