Everything that sucks with school

[IA]

Hi all!!! It's me again Again, please don't be mean if I make any grammar mistakes, ok? I'm not the best at English. Again, I am trying to make others agree that school sucks, so I am making a list of bad things about school. You guys have anything that you want to add?

1. Homework.

2. No phones allowed.

3. The stress.

4. It's boring.

5. The toilets. I mean like seriously??? They are TERRIBLE!!!

6. You can't slide down the icy hill during winter. If you slide down the hill, you will land in like 0.5 meter snow, so what is the problem??

Got any other points?

7. You're parents treat it as more important than your comfort and happiness

8. Toxic people who could harm you in anyway

9. Too little freedom

Quote:School sucks because if you don't like it, most people automatically think there's something serious wrong with you.
School ruins learning. In school, learning is all about memorizing things, answering questions, and writing loads of crap on topics you don't care about.
Because you're forced to go there, and if you want to try some other alternative, you need to get parental permission first. School is essentially pointless forced labour without pay.
It sucks because people expect you to treat school as the most important thing in your life. Nevermind what you'd rather be doing.
School sucks because once you're done, you'll probably forget 90% of what you "learned" there and burn all your books anyway. All you'll be left with is a diploma stating that you survived 12 years of hell. And very few people (besides your parents) will even want to look at it.
Because talking to your friends is a crime at school.
It sucks because even if you're bored out of your mind, you'll still get all the blame for not participating in class.
School suppresses independent thought - if you disagree with the teacher, you're in trouble. If you dare to think of a new way to do something, it's automatically wrong.
School sucks because if you do what they say and do all your work, you don't get time off - they'll just expect even more from you in future. And someone who cheats on their work and tests can just as easily do better than you.
School sucks because life is short, and you'll never get that time back.
School makes everyone around you panic over the smallest little things that none of them (or anyone else) will care about a few years down the line.
Even when you go home, school invades your life by giving you homework as well.
It sucks because even though school has all these problems, if you mention any of them, you'll be the one they blame, no matter how right you may actually be.
School sucks because every now and then it does something useful for someone, and then everyone goes all "Look! That's proof that school is good for you!"... It's like getting free ice cream in hell - it just doesn't quite make up for all the other stuff.

12. Staff who don't know what logic is, and punishes you for complete horseshit

It isn't even as good as it can be for the sorts who'd like it. The wrong teachers can ruin everything for an eager student.

Somewhat consubstantially, it can be a breeding ground for discrimination. Ageism, ableism, and all sorts of different -isms are made possible by the wrong teachers and can even be practiced without notice. Even flat-out bullying without any other agenda can be encouraged when the teacher is a jerk. Teachers can even unwittingly set a pack of bullies on some poor student.

It also doesn't teach anybody the things they'll really need such as how to care for living things like even their own freaking selves and how to be a decent member of society. At least, it isn't required to. The truth of the matter is, if somebody put a gun to your head and asked you about the Spanish Inquisition, then you're probably going to die even if you're omniscient or something.

13. The time eaten up. The school day for me is over six hours and if you add in homework…. Its hard to enjoy my youth when I feel like I don't really have one. Oh well, it better than… um… I'll get back to you.

14. Lack of privacy/constant surveillance.arguably one of my biggest problems with schools.

It makes parents crazy; They would do anything they think would make their kid get better grades, even if it ultimately would end up worsening their kid's grades.
