RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Segregated from Gym class

Because I didn't have my Gym uniform for the first time in the year, I was forced(Yes, as in "escorted") to a room where troublemakers/defiant people are sent to.

I was pressured on(Actually, more like "If you don't do it you come back the next period") to copy stuff for the whole class instead of doing exercise because apparently not having my Gym uniform once in half a year makes me unable to do sport and makes me a defiant. I was also given a sheet I had to make my parents sign;

PS: Here we have primary(1st to 7th grade) and secondary school(8th to 12th grade).

"Like you already know, the employees of the secondary school Val-Mauricie are doing efforts to apply and make the rules of the frame of life respected. The application of these measures have for objective to help the student to prepare his/her future and guide him/her to make him being able to become a responsible and autonomous citizen.

However, your child has voluntarely broken one of the rules mentionned in the frame of life of our school. You shall find at the bottom the rules he has broken.

We ask you to fill the form at the bottom and return it by your child. He will have to present himself to the room 35 between 8h30 and 9h10 to deliver it to the responsible person of the room. Afterwards, he/she will be able to re-integrate his classes in a regular way."

PS: They indeed call the rules; THE FRAME OF LIFE.

What's the reason for this segregation bullshit for forgetting gym clothes once?
