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.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

They've been feeding us that garbage about "closing the gap" for over a decade.

If you want to be a different fish, you've got to jump out of the school.

RE: Teacher Stuns Audience When He Reveals Why He Wrote the ‘Common Core’ Standards

Common core has only fucked up not only inner city kids but kids around the nation. If this asshole honestly thought raising the bar would help the kids with their legs already cemented in the ground jump any higher, there's no words in any lexicon to describe how fucking stupid he is. Seriously. All this bullshit to push an agenda? For what? White guilt? Fuck this guy. Fuck him hard.

"White privilege" is a load of crap. That shit doesn't exist in the REAL world.

Hidden stuff:
TRIGGER WARNING: THIS TRIGGER WARNING CONTAINS TRIGGER WARNINGS!

Dear Tumblrites: Despite your wrongly self-diagnosed PTSD, no line of scientific evidence suggests people can be triggered over the internet. Triggering works through the senses (i.e. smell, taste, touch, vision, hearing.) but it goes through real time; if you're not experiencing it in real life as it's ACTUALLY HAPPENING in your ACTUAL life, you CANNOT be triggered. The only exception to this is if you have a seizure, but then again, that's triggered by epilepsy (i.e. rapidly-changing flashing lights) NOT PTSD. Remembering a bad incident is NOT the same thing as having a flashback. When you remember, you think; when you flashback, you feel.

If it was any sort of secret that leftist ideals have been the inspiration for many of our flawed education standards, it isn't anymore. This comes as no surprise to me.

Even the name evokes Maoism.

This die-hard Leftie opposes the common core. What do you make of them apples?

Nothing is so simple.

There is definitely such a thing as white privilege. And the Common Core can't cure it, either.

Common core is just some outdated bullshit that mandates education on our kids at a higher level. George W. Bush talks about lowering race gaps by implementing more tests to test said education. In reality, Common core doesn't do jack shit, and makes the problem worst by replacing it with a new one.
