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.

My School's Discipline plan (READ AND CRINGE)
I read the "Discipline Plan"
And here are one's i thought were complete BULLSHIT!
1. Cell phone usage during class
Offense 1: Warning not to use phone
Offense 2: Office Referral and 1 day lunch detention (BULLSHIT!)
2. Hugging etc.
Offense 1: Write Referral and one day lunch detention
Offense 2: ISS
Offense 3: ISS
Let me guess hugging a friend (girl or boy)who has had a bad day and both goes to detention (Complete fucking bullshit.)
Excerpt from my schools handbook:
"PDA (Public Display of Affection) disrupts the educational process and is not allowed at BEMS. This includes, but is not limited to,
holding hands, hugging, kissing, or any of that gross stuff! It is considered a disruption of the educational environment and will be
handled according to the student discipline policy. Parents will be notified if warnings are not followed."
Guess in my school if you hug kiss or any of that all hell will break loose!
3. Fighting
Offense 1: Self Containment or suspension (You get kicked out!)
But what if someone provokes or bullies you. What you're supposed to do? Let the bully punch you or give you a black eye?
There is more stuff I will add to this by editing this.
Not adding replies bumping it.

Hugging disrupts the educational process? I'm sorry, what?
"Gross stuff"? Those are their actual words? Hugging is gross?
Well, I suppose hugging one of the monsters who wrote that would be gross...

Nope, This is in Utah (USA).
This is fucking absurd, Isn't it?
If someone hugged a person. If my kid got into trouble for simply hugging I'd sue the fucking school.
The Schools name is "Box Elder Middle School"

RE: My School's Discipline plan (READ AND CRINGE)
I really don't wanna read in a school that forbids holding hands, that's totally BS! Really, holding hands actually is sign of growing friendship which improves mental development and helps get along better!
I'm so not gonna elaborate as it won't reach the school officials either way. Frag that school. And its harder when Parents agree as they think the School Rules are ALWAYS right!!! I'm guessing that's the reason you can't shift into an alternate school, eh?
Maybe that's how the name got into being.
"Box Elder Middle School"
Box:- Keep kids Confined in a Box
Elder:- Everyone is Elder to you so that they can assert authority on you
Middle School:- What it says on the Tin
No offense, that was meant to be a joke. But really, the School Rules are beyond Absurd.
