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.

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.

Until June 7th

You guys are going to lose me to schoolwork and an obsessive parent. I decided I'll just barely pass to get to 10th grade, but it's going to take a lot of time out of my day and I'll barely be on here.

I'll check in every day still... I hope.

Congrats for doing something I never had the balls to do.
If you have kids, save them from the bullshit you are forced to go through.

RE: Until June 7th

My county budget plan are as follow: Cut 350 more teacher: increase classroom size: add more furlough day: and shorten school year.

My Advance Placement class had 35 student in it.... Most of them were pretty dumb too. We have an "open door policy". Meaning anyone can get in AP class. No teacher recommendation require. The upcoming 2012 school year is getting shittier and shittier.

I remember when I use to work by butt off. Until I got to 10th grade. Then I stopped giving a dam. I did a minimum like you said. Ever since 10th I have done about 10 homework in the years leading up to 12th.

June 7 huh..... Awww, I wanted you to keep updating you school days.
