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.

silent lunches?!
Yesterday, our counselor announced during lunch we would have a silent lunch. Only some of the tables talked while the adult was talking(partly our table). Why do they have to punish all of us? Why can't they just punish the tables that talked?!
RIP URY AND GWEDIN

RE: silent lunches?!
Once time in elementary school, I think 3rd grade. They lunch ladies decided they wanted to start a silent lunch.
I think they were in a bad mood and decided to take it out on all of us.
And I was kind of lip syncing. Not making any noise, just lip syncing a song that was in my head and I got called out, in front of everyone, and I said "I wasn't talking, i was just lip syncing" and they were pretty much like "bullshit" not in such vulgar words. And I was sent to the office. This is the only time in my whole school life that I've been sent to the office.
Anyways, they decided to make it worse. Because after lunch was almost over and there was few more students that were probably wrongfully accused as well. We were lined up against the wall with several adults, including that lunch cunt that pulled me out and I think the principal or vice principal. Being lectured to for everyone else in the lunch room to see. Me, having not even spoken.
And my cousin as well was there. And I spoke a little thing to him and he replied. And this pissed me off because lunch cunt was like "look they still can't shut up"
Bitch couldn't have been pmsing because she was old and crusty. Must've been bitter from having to be a lunch cunt her whole fucking life.

My school is quite the opposite: everybody in the whole cafeteria makes it sound like I'm in the Superdome after the Saints just scored a touchdown...

What do these dumb fucks think is going to happen when you release a bunch of young humans together into one room and allow them only that hour to freely speak and interact?
Another of my trillion reasons to not force my kids to go to any school.

They say school's a place for socializing and making friends, but punish you when you talk...

Well, some people are natural loners but that's a whole other topic.

Doesn't change the fact that we're social animals. Not saying everybody must be social, but humans will always have the inclination to bond with other humans in most cases.

Personally, I prefer the quiet. But this is ridiculous.

Who cares about what the adult has to say. Obviously few, because if anyone really cared they wouldn't be talking.

RE: silent lunches?!
Why dont the teachers shut it and respect the students right to free speech. They say not to interrupt but they punish students for interrupting the students conversation?
A speaker must earn his or her right to speak. No one can claim superior authority to speak and supress an individuals right.

Try doing it in a multi-purpose auditorium/gym/cafeteria like I did at my old school. The roof made all the voices sound like it was fucking raining outside.

I think it makes the teachers feel powerful as if they actually mean something. I always hated having to go through silent lunch when I didn't do jack since I rarely did anything wrong in class. I work my work done then doodled for the rest of the time. xD
Still got punished though 
I'm sorry but what language are you speaking? Because it sounds like bullshit.

They did it again for 15 minutes today. Originally they were going to do it for 10 minutes. Why dont they just shove all the people that talk in one room?! Or is it too hard for them?!
