My other comment was a meme, but this one I wanna actually complain in.
So, everyone assumes that if you have a hard time keeping up with lessons, taking tests is the only hard thing about school. Thing is, no matter how smart you are, or how good you are at paying attention, or how hard you try, or how good your grades are, theres always pressure to be better than you are. Bottom of the class? You have to be better. Average? You need to be better. Second smartest in the class? You have to be the smartest. Smartest in the class? You have to be smartest in the grade. Smartest in the grade? You cant make one mistake or say one thing wrong because then the cycle will just repeat. The thing is, school basically programs all of its students to be robots who listen to everything and get upset over what theyre supposed to be upset with and be proud of almost nothing. The thing that I hate more, though, is how school never admits that maybe its in the wrong. If a student gets basically anything one letter lower than what they usually get, its their fault because the student isnt trying hard enough. If a student gets depressed because of school, they must be dealing with some different problems too, like bullying or problems at home. Because its neeeeever the schools fault. Thing is, school is also full of teachers who you should never let be therapists. Theyll always say that its the students fault for not getting a good grade because they mustve not tried hard enough, and no, it cant be because there was way too much pressure put on the student. Theyll say that if a student is having trouble focusing in class, they simply arent trying and are ignoring the lessons on purpose, and no, its not because we always have to learn things in literally the most boring way possible. Theyll say that if a student comes to school exhausted then the student mustve stayed up too late playing video games, and no, its not because the student had a massive pile of homework they had to finish and had to study for a test so they ended up getting no sleep whatsoever.
In summary, school sucks at not pressuring students to do better, and actually taking the blame when something is their fault.

Im 13 and I am staying at my grandmas because my mom opened up a court case against my dad because problems that have building up for years (they divorced when I was a baby) and I dont know how to talk to people, I dont know what to talk about and even worse, I am going to a new school where nobody in my grade wants to talk to me and be my friend. Only this one 8th grader who also doesnt really talk and when we sat at lunch I had to basically carry the conversation (not gracefully because humans are complicated) and I am scared of having friends because it is so exhausting having to be the social one and my past friendships have all ended in tragedy because I didnt talk enough or didnt react the way they wanted me too. Its hard to make friends in a new school because everyone is friends and you cant talk to them because they will glare at you for attempting to be friends and school making us do all these partner projects really hits the nail into the coffin because from that alone, Im afraid of rejection and I force try to force myself out of my comfort zone and its has made me have breakdowns and become even more afraid of human interaction. In the pandemic I was more free than the last 7 years of school in doing what I loved and actually progressing in that area. Now I am back to the way I was before the pandemic in art, my drawing has deteriorated and I find it difficult to do art. This past summer I spent about almost my entire time for 2 months in my room, some days I only went out to get food once a day, I was depressed and now I am worse because I am in this new school and all the issues that come with school are happening again, I didnt miss the stress or anxiety or constant fear of having to have friends so I can come just a little bit close to fitting in, in school. People naturally dont talk to me and often prefer my brother even though he doesnt talk very much like me, they always talk to him and he has so many friends and I cant help feeling fed up. I want to have genuine friends who I can trust and be myself around, I write this as I prepare for Monday.

Currently doing the Junior Cert and everyday I am reminded I have to study if I want to succeed and get berated if I don't. I want to be a volleyball player and play, not cry over maths. I used to like studying but it feels like adults are trying to make my life miserable because my motivation to do anything school related is non existent. I want to make my family proud but do I need to make me miserable to achieve academic validation. I feel like people are expecting so much of me just because Im a Smart Girl. Why cant I just be a lad who doesnt have to do shit to get praise! How come they answer three questions and get compliments while I put my hand up for every question and get I know you know this Ellena. How come lads can play their sports right up to exams while I need to stop the one thing I look forward to during the week, the one time I dont have to be surrounded by bullies, a whole month before. I hate it! I hate school. I hate my bullies. I hate my teachers and I love my parents but sometimes I hate them for putting this pressure on me just because I'm a girl, and So Mature for your age.

Being an Indian, let me show you some insights from my amazing school.
If you ever end up being a teacher's good and most faithful student, don't you dare fail to do every damn assignment, cuz if you forget once, you can expect a phone call or a remark in your calendar or maybe even meet your parents IRL ( happened to me) it's just not fair! I know we should be sincere but this shit is too damn much! you should not call parents or make a big fuss just cuz it happened ONCE
then you gotta be perfect about wearing your proper uniform, according to my school 3 remarks in anything equals a suspension for a week or so and it'll hamper your own attendance, especially if you're above 10th grade
your notebooks, projects, everything has to be UPDATED cuz there is overall checks from CBSE boards
now i have an enormous hatred for my school, I don't wanna be there anymore. just. I just wanna leave, but according to them, I'm just a lazy kid who will fail at life. sorry for my rant but this is sadly the truth.

School:
Gives students way too much homework
Forces students to act the same so that they can all have a better mark
Doesnt support kids for their passions and force them to learn something they wont even use in the real world
Allows bullies to flourish
Doesnt allow kids to talk to their other people, yet is still confused why a lot of people dont have friends
Ruins sleep schedules, therefore leading to worse mental health and physical well-being, and lasting long term health affects
Punishes people who speak up against them
Forces everyone to have the same sugar coated opinion, disallowing freedom of expression
Doesnt admit when their wrong, blaming it on the students instead
Hires biased teachers that dont actually care about their students
Also school:
Why is everyone depressed?

reply

Okay, I should say it.
1. So maybe I am a good student, but I am a little weak in physics and maths( 85 to 90 % in other subjects on average. But no one cares about how good I am in those subjects, but only points out my weakness.
2. I'm not a teacher's pet type. I am not even recognised in the crowd. The topper of my class always gets all the attention ( In my class only I and 2 other guys can type comments in English. The teachers to the topper when she makes mistakes are like nO pRobLeM STudY MoRe YOu aRe tHe prIDe oF OUr Skoool just because she is teacher's pet. But whenever I make a mistake stand up, hold ears, get out of the class.
They especially treat the boys like kids and expect them to score in test BICHES F OFF I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU EXPECT FROM ME

I hate school because it's horrible. Most maybe even all teachers don't even care for the students, give us a crap-ton of homework and expect it to be done tomorrow. Knowing dang well, we're tired and can't wait to rest. Schools don't even give us real friggin food. Just some un-healthy bullcrap. You want us to wake up early and be ready to learn the MOMENT, we get out of bed is infruiating. They sometimes complain about our uniform not being perfect/ our outfits we wear, to the shoes, and dang acessories. And we do school for almost 20 years of our lives. Then, want us to do ANOTHER 4 years, for a thick piece of paper thats supposed to be, worth it? Its not. School is horrible.
reply

I don't wanna go to school tomorrow.
I just kept thinking about that everyday. I was on the verge of crying because of how terrible school is.
We have so many clubs and I can't catch up to the activities and performance tasks, I didn't get a high enough score to be entered into the art club and now I'm stuck with dancing and I keep thinking about how my life would be better if I just got a better result on the art page.
Now I'm lost in my school and it hasn't even past the first quarter and I feel like it's impossible.
I just know the school system knows better than this.

reply

I never like one of my teachers why cause she would always say ask someone if you have a question but when I asked my classmate what the work was about cause my teacher didnt explain it she yelled at me and she said maybe if you payed attention you would understand and I never liked her and one of my old teachers put me in a group to write something and I was the only one thinking at that time what we should write and I was stressed when she asked me to come up and read she yelled at me and I was new at the time and didnt know what to really do
reply

Bullying, ridiculous rules, teachers not making any sense, teachers yelling, students being disrespectful, getting teased by others or being chosen last, stress before test day, paddled over dumb reasons, cafeteria food is often times bad and those are the main reasons I hated school. also where i went to school at the teachers got away with bullying, abuse, humiliation, etc and if your younger sibling got in trouble they called you to the office and chewed you out over it instead of picking up a phone and calling the parents.

My attitude of these
Why i hate school
Cuz of
- stress
- anxiety
- depression
- poor mental health issues
- bullies
- strict teachers
- having a bad grades
- Family crisis about my bad student attitude
- Toxic students
- unattractiveness
- lots of fake friends than real friends
- mondays
- especially Im a first student cuz of A as a last name
- public speaking
And that's why i can't reach to the future.
And it's not lead to the future, it's a SUICIDE.

_sigh_ isnt it AWFUL when u feel sick, call ur mom/dad and they tell you that theyll pick you up from school. Then you tell your teacher that you dont feel well and need to go home. And they say: _UgH, I DoNt KnOw WhAt tO sAy. YoU knOw, iF yoU gO hoMe, yOulL miSs oUt oN a LoT oF tHiNgs. YOuR fInaL eXamS aRe cOmiNg iN jUsT a FeW wEeKs aNd YoU nEed To pRepAre_
And then you just think to urself: _bish Im sick and if I stay Ill feel worse_
_totally didnt happen to me a week ago_

School is literally a joke I dropped out when I was 15 and now I'm the owner of my own successful business. Nothing they teach you there amounts to anything in the real world. It's all just a popularity contest with cliques and poor social learning skills. If I ever have kids I am not putting them in school I don't care if it's the law. Not only that but with all the school shootings on the rise hell no. Kids need to be put in the world real life experience matters school does not

reply

Teachers dont even understand us lol. Im in tenth grade and just 2 weeks in school i already got involved in an issue that wasn't even true. They shoudlve understood us first. They give us 1-6 assignments everyday and always tells us they have high expectations for us. Are we not allowed to say that we are tired? Are we not allowed to speak? Do they think they dont make mistakes too? We are only human.
reply

school consumes all of my energy. I have no or very little time for hobbies, activities, a social life. I have no time to be a teenager. Everyday i come home from school Im absolutely exhausted from the noise and people and the piles of work and all i can do is just sit in my room or sleep. But then i come to find out i have multiple tests and piles of hw for tomorrow. Its really so exhausting
reply

I hate schools, becaue they think of you as a primitive being, and you have to conform too much and its too much authoritative sometimes, besides, even the attitudes of the teachers are crap, teachers dont motivate us, they instead break our ambitions and dreams and crush em, and its all about fitting in and you cant have an independent mind, and then theres bullying and growing up.
reply

my reason is i can't get along with my classmates, I'm fine with grades and homework tho. Being in class stresses me so much that i have to walk around the school for 5 min before returning and when i come back other kids just whisper and talk behind my back how weird and creepy i am. I will just get stressed again and go for another walk and everything just keep repeating
reply

I swear some teachers genuinely don't care or even know that we have a life outside of sitting every single day. Like I can't spend 8 more hours on homework after I just got out of school, I need sleep. And the education system is extremely messed up, like I only get 5 hours sometimes EVEN 3 of sleep. And they get mad at me for studying all the time? Oh okay.
reply

reply

I do not like school and never will. I've hated people. I've hated talking. I did not asked to be born just so I can serve a twelve year life sentence. I'd rather be at a world where none of this exist like the apocalypse or our own personal afterlife. So we can be free from this shithole.
