he's comedic (also a right winger)
I can really only think of one thing I learned in public school that was actually useful to life
by a teacher at least
I had a history teacher back in 8th grade
He decided to go off the course of teaching history for a bit and started going into economics, retirement, and saving money
supply/demand, investments, all that stuff
From Kindergarten To the middle of the Second grade I was at this Elementary school near me that was crap because the only guy who could help me was the Principal.
I transferred to this other school from the other half of Second grade to Fifth Grade that suited my needs but it was kind of hard
that was useful, and I enjoyed it
@Rhodesiaboo you probably have a lot of potential, it's just that it's crushed by how shitty the public school system is
From sixth to the middle of Seventh Grade I was at this retarded Middle School
@FLanon that sounds pretty great
did most of your class understand it
Sixth Grade was fine, but Seventh was awful
middle school in general is awful
understood, maybe, cared, no.
I was kept in the room I started out in, and got suspended a lot
what part of Florida are you in again?
Around Tampa Bay
@Rhodesiaboo what got you suspended a lot?
@FLanon did you hear about the serial killer?
It was a couple weeks back, yeah
@Rhodesiaboo sorry to hear that, I suffered through suicidal depression as a teen too
@Red Storm (in NYC) I just didn’t like the way they were teaching.
that serial killer went to St. John's University
which is a 40 minute walk away from my apartment
it's a small world
Eventually they showed me this private school for kids like me, and I’ve stayed there since
I’m a lot calmer, and happier
@Rhodesiaboo are you on meds?
@Red Storm (in NYC) No, i was never on any meds
btw, what made you depressed? Was it the environment of the school you were in?
I wouldn't be surprised if it was
that's why I think public schools are not only useless, they're harmful
@Red Storm (in NYC) Yeah, it was very shitty. I was stuck with this kid who had big meltdowns because he couldn’t speak.
They really they should focus on stuff like teaching fiscal responsibility, entrepreneurship, values, and normal empirical stuff like mathematics.
And I only left the room when lunch arrived
btw life will get MUCH better once you're done with high school
you're what...16?
