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.

I'm thinking of creating an anti-school Instagram account, full of anti-school quotes, and in general quotes about freedom and anti-conformity.
If anyone has questions, comments, suggestions, or objections, please discuss.

Cool idea! I'd follow that. Also, include link(s) to SS whenever possible. 
I actually vaguely remember someone already creating one long ago though... not sure what happened with that.

Got lost in the shitstorm of 2014 likely.
I'll try to get it up tomorrow. I can use my fake phone number in case it's needed, plus my handy mail.com account.

This is the page so far: https://www.instagram.com/schoolsurvivalandyouthrights/
What is a good bio I could use? It has to be 150 words or fewer (freaking Instagram limitations)
Random ideas:
The youth are not who you think they are
It's okay to hate school. There is nothing wrong with you. They say school is for learning? Well, being bored is hardly any way to learn anything! No wonder hardly anyone remembers what they were forced to memorize at school. School isn't about learning, it's about training people to be obedient to those with authority over them.
Don't trust school to 'educate' you - only you can be trusted with that!
-SoulRiser (from this site)(not the whole thing at once sadly)
Better name ideas would help too. xD

Lol thanks. Let's link this with Soul.
Anyway I suggest you do anti-school quotes and also link articles that are about school hells that I link in the News section. This should be good.

Arigatou Gozaimasu. I shall do that, but not alone.
I want to pm the password and email to(trusted) SS members who'd like to add to the page. Would you like them?
