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.

Because some of us don't see the point of lots of studying and hours of homework just for A.
And if you didn't already know that after being an SSizen for over a year you should off yourself.

Except for keeping your ass out of summer school or repeating the class next year.
Look i personally dont care if Sharpie sees no point in the class or he doesnt mind failing. But thats not the case. Sharpie obviously wants to pass the class. You cant pass the class of you don't do the work. It ain't that hard nigga.

So you don't have to retake the same fucking class over again, the better you do the faster get out. What better? Doing it now, or during summer?

RE: Going to fail English now because of a dumbfuck
If you are going to do the work, get an A. If you aren't going to do the work, come up with reasons why it's fucking stupid from a scientific unbiased viewpoint. Any point in between is kind of stupid.

RE: Going to fail English now because of a dumbfuck
We're an anti-school site, but we go to school anyways, (almost willingly in some cases). And we don't go about changing anything about it. We complete the work, don't cause too much of a fuss and we get good grades in hopes that we can all achieve something better? And we can all thank school for it?
Anti-school?

Some kids get punished if they don't go (like get their computer taken away) so they decide to go and do the work,even if they're not forced to do so.

We also provide people who have to go a place to vent their frustrations and some emotional support. Not to mention lulz. Lots and lots of lulz.

Why not change it (even partially) while your still young? It ain't gonna get easier once you get older.

RE: Going to fail English now because of a dumbfuck
Saying "You should've done something" is not advice, its just telling him something he already knows. Maybe you should be telling him how to pass instead of telling him how he can fix something that's already been done.

He can't do anything about that RIGHT NOW, so why keep telling him to do something he can't.
