I was definitely lucky to be in such a school and community. I think you could reasonably say that I was sheltered, and in many ways, I still am. But I think it was good that both my family and school were relatively peaceful and stable for me during my childhood, and it makes me really sad that school is a source of trauma and stress for people -- to me, part of the deep appeal of leftism is that I'd like everyone to grow up in such a peaceful environment, not just dummies like me who lucked out.
