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 children will praise Jesus or I will nail them to a cross and let them hang until they do

Ok.... so that means you will be a abusive father, or something?

RE: What kind of a parent you think you will be?

I like to think of a mix between positive and slacker. Maybe a little abusive as I get older if they turn out to be shitty kids.

Positive. Maybe abusive if they don't do exactly as I say.

RE: What kind of a parent you think you will be?

I will make sure my kids don't have to any homework and can actually enjoy childhood.

However if the plumbing gets backed up I'll make then do that, cause I hate doing that, also I'll force them to do my taxes for me.

RE: What kind of a parent you think you will be?

I'm having kids for the sole purpose of making them my slaves. I'll make them trim my yard with fucking sizers and I'll make them learn instruments and karate. The instruments so they can entertain me and karate so they can protect me. They also get guns. If they step out of line I'll slap them around. Oh wait, they have guns. And they know karate. And what will I do? Oh FUCK.

Nevermind then, I guess I'll just let them do whatever they want lol. They'll turn out pretty fucked up (or maybe they'll turn out self-sufficient as fuck?) but oh well.

Chances are do what absent does if I ever had kids(fat chance in this society) as the state raises peoples kids more than parents do.

I won't be a parent, lol.
Go to work. Send your kids to school. Follow fashion. Act normal. Walk on the pavement. Watch TV. Save for your old age. Obey the law. Repeat after me: "I am free."

RE: What kind of a parent you think you will be?

It sucks that seemingly intelligent people don't actually want kids. Only stupid fucks do. So that only stupid fucks are raised.

RE: What kind of a parent you think you will be?

Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
And I don't even own a T.V

Put me in the hospital for nerves
And then they had to commit me
You told them all I was crazy
They cut off my legs now I'm an amputee, god damn you

I'm not sick but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick but I'm not well
And it's a sin to live so well

You read my mind, lol. I thought of that song immediately when I read what Unschool wrote.
