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.

School killed art again
A week ago, the school forced some teens to do some graffiti on one of the school walls inside, the graffiti's really cool and all but the meaning just makes me want slam a sledgehammer in it. The graffiti is basically a giant city with a tag on it, on the side theres some guy that looks like an asshole and that holds a diploma in one of his hands, he's also dressed in the school uniform(more insulting), and at the left, theres a kind of magical scroll that's supposed to represent the rules of the school.
Heres my interpretation:
City:The society
The rules scroll:We have no choice and it's almost magical(period.)
The student:Wasting your time is COOL.
What the fuck have you done? Puking on art again!

Re: School killed art again
I hated Art. Well, not that much, really. My art sucked, though.
And, talk about school mascots: an eagle is me! A blue and gold eagle that says "PRIDE IN EXCELLENCE", as if they're Satanic. (pride is a sin)

I think that my computer must have a virus. All of your puncutation and capital letters have been taken out of your post. Either that, or you're illiterate.

Re: School killed art again
They haven't killed art. They are merely torturing it for the fun of it. God I hate it when they do this. My one passion used to be art. Screw that.

Re: School killed art again
If you're upset over it spraypaint REAL art over it. Perhaps something anti school.

Re: School killed art again
we have a mural on our cafeteria wall that looks like the artists were so fucking high when they painted it that they didn't even know what it was. it's like a mix of rainbows, cars, dollar signs, a woman with hair over her eyes, the sun, trees, all covered in more fucking spitballs than you've ever seen. it's the trippiest thing in the world.
I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.
