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.

RE: Smh...

I feel like now is a good time to introduce Stephen to my father.

Meet my father. Male, mid forties. Long hair, greying. Beer belly. Alcoholic.
Finished highschool. Graduated mind you. In fact, he even graduated early. Well he'd had a pretty good job right? I mean, according to your logic. it's not like he's been sitting on his ass for 40 something years getting occasional odd jobs, mooching off my mother, drinking his life away.... Oh.. he is? Yikes.. Guess school doesn't equal good job, good life.

Now you may say "oh well did he go to college" no.

But my mom did. And yes, she does have a job! She's what's called a "medical lab technician." Have you ever had to pee in a cup? Or get your blood drawn? Well, she's the person who does all the fancy shmancy shit that figures out how to tell if you're fucked up. Surely she must be paid well!
Oh... A McDonald manager makes more than my mom... damn.

Oh but school = good life. Yup.

I'm a girl ffffeck
