    What about the endless work you had to take home with you to finish, with some teachers even disallowing finishing it in class, having to deal with bullies and other idiots, being told you need to get laid and that it would change your life, finding out together with someone in the same position that it really doesn’t change anything and you just have to be a special type of stupid to think that, resolving stuff with bullies only to start getting bullied by teachers over your health issues, and probably so much more that has been buried as a defense mechanism.

      Sounds like it built character. Hope you thanked those teachers!

        I thanked one teacher by using the system administrator’s login to delete all her files like tests and assignments to print out. Bugger just signed in right next to me in one of the computer labs with two finger typing.

          So your parents were failures raising you and you spit in the eye of the teacher who tried to teach you how to operate in this world.

          Sad.

            Bitch straight up accused me of using drugs when I was having a migraine, which at it’s worst has the same symptoms of a stroke. She also taught first aid so she had no fucking excuse.

              Why are you at school while sick? Did your parents just not care about you?

              Your teacher isn’t a damn baby sitter or nurse FFS.

                  Because she taught first aid, it’s her job to be the school nurse? That’s ridiculous. No wonder teachers are leaving the profession, morons expect them to be the fucking parents now.

            To me it sounds like they’re the one who “taught” the teacher how to operate in this world.

              Sounds like the teacher prepared them for reality… which is their job. Commenters parents clearly failed on multiple levels.

                I wouldn’t really trust advice by a person that keeps all of their teaching material in a single place with no backups and doesn’t even understand the importance of passwords.

                You can’t expect to teach me “how life works” if you don’t even know how your job works.

                  But you’d trust a malignant narcissist who’s happy to destroy another’s work?

                  Seems like you’ve got some talking points for your next therapy session here. Did your trust issues come when your Dad left or was it your partner later in life?

                    I don’t think the “malignant narcissist” was trying to teach me anything, unlike the teacher or you. That alone makes him better than both of you imo.

              Hardly. I’m a realist and real talk… ops parents failed him badly. That teacher probably saved his life.

                  I’ve got plenty of ‘social understanding’, which is why I’m so easily able to see thru this bullshit and identify the root cause of the issue… and it ain’t the teacher.

                  You on the other hand, makes me wonder how much effort your parents put into your emotional aptitude.
