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.

Re: Black people
Anyone notices when I say "yo"? I use it and "word" when I talk occasionally, and it automatically makes me a wigger. No, it's actually how I talk. See, that's the great thing about cultural diversity. It grows on you.
Now cultural diversity means you have a black guy in a crowd of whites. Fuck that shit, man.

Re: Black people
No, not really, there aren't even that many students at my school.
Since we still have school unforms (  ), you don't have a few groups based on what kind of clothes some-one wears, what kind of music, etc.
Instead the "groups" here are smaller and more efficient.

ahh, I think indian as native american. Sorry for the confusion. Whenever my history teacher talks about native americans he calls them indians, so it's stuck in my head as that.

Re: Black people
I think it depends on where and how a black person is raised. If you have some household that preaches how bad whites treated blacks back in the day then they'll start all the racist bullshit. But if ya get one of the good black households that have moved on with there lives like they should then everything is fine and dandy.
And you can always say: If you don't like it then go back to Africa. hee hee
Sure things werent fair alllllllll those years ago but thats the thing it was ALL those years ago.

Kind of. "Asian" of course means Chinese and Korean here. Not, say, Indian or Kazakh.
