Got it bad, got it bad, got it bad? Hot for teacher?Tankichi said:Female and a teacher...yummy lol. Had to.
Agreed. Here's my sob story to show how little public schools care. I started in public schools until they wanted me on drugs to slow me down. When I was in kindergarten and first grade, I would literally be reduced to tears because I was already an avid reader, and wasn't learning anything. I used to sleep with an encyclopedia because I loved learning so much, and it was just too much for a public school to try and deal with me on that level, so drugging me would be better for everyone right? My parents disagreed, pulled me out, and I managed to get into a private school by scholarship at the second grade level. I stayed there for a few years until they reduced 100% and 97.5% grades to C's because I refused to tutor an abusive, mentally handicapped girl who enjoyed kicking and spitting. Outcome Based Education was such an incompetent mess.Sgt. WantCuddles said:*snippity
So then, I homeschooled for 2 years, worked well ahead, but due to family issues, and medical problems, it was easier for my parents to put me back into public school. What was the school's first course of action with an intelligent, hard working, knowledge sponge? Hold the kid back, he wouldn't want to be in a group of kids who weren't born in the same 365 day spectrum, would he? No, he would be much better off retaking a whole grade level and being with kids that were born in the same 365 day spectrum. So what if it stunts his intellectual growth, it'll be so much better for his self esteem, right?
Now, I'm working my ass off, paying my way through a private college, and loving it because they actually give a damn about me.
