School is a wast of my time I hate it and I always will Ill never forgive the people who used me the teachers who kicked me out and failed me. The pathetic people of this place will feel no mercy. I cant trust no one and if I do I put my life on the line everytime. They are all wanting a peice of me, I will let them get a peace... just so I can make them wittness who I am. I dont jack around with the kids in the hall and if they make eye contact Ill shove them to a wall, I dont care who sees, hears, or watches it all. The school can do what they want I dont care they can jump off a cliff for all I care. Its never been the same since I had that Rage... I came home one day and Broke a glass just by looking at it. since then Ive been known to have a 6th sense that I use to Hurt my foes... thats why Im not safe around the people Im with at school.

Darklife, take solace in the fact that you're not the only one, and this problem extends to those without autisticness as well. The school system is outdated, a 2nd wave institution in a third wave world. (If you're not familiar with the terms, check out the work of Alvin Toffler, you can wiki it for a quick overview. Basically, 2nd wave is industrial factory work, for which our current school system, with its bells, assembly line classes, etc. were created to train you for. Not only that, but unions and other factors extended this system to grade 12 to keep you there longer for the benefit of established factory workers. We are now in a third wave, the knowledge/information age, and the school system has not adapted to the needs of the students today, or the parents.)

Autistic-ness? is that like Female-ness, or maybe Male-ness?

Autisticness was my way of covering the whole spectrum in one word. I just made it up.

I whole heartedly agree about school forcing the students into becoming factory drones.

I don't feel any more intelligent from studing in my schools and colleges. I derive my intelligence from my own self-initiative to learn from outside sources. If I strictly follow the school system I would be just another factory drone who only knows to go with the flow and burn like the rest.

It is a disgusing paradox that our current society demands workers who think out of the box, but at the same time encourages an education system that teaches otherwise!

Right on. At the same time, the employers often do the same, paying lip service to out-of-box thinking. Ah well. Just remember, history remembers those who broke the mold, not the slavish devotees.

I believe the paradox exists because the state fears what would happen if a large group of free thinkers who thought outside the realms of what is their policy of how children should think got together. Though this ruins alot of peoples chances at greater success in life because their education never taught them to think creatively.

For example. A teacher asked our class to write a thesis on organized religon and its impact on world history. I wrote a well researched paper on how Organized religon has been the root of several disasters in history (Catholic Crusades, The Holocaust, All the Jihads in the middle east) but stopped several other potential crises (Christianity being made the official religon of Rome to stop fighting that was tearing the empire apart). I failed the paper because in my conclusion I stated that alot more lives wouldve been saved had organized religion never been formed. My World History teacher said that it was to controversial and would offend a large number of people.

Rinai, that's a horrible story. Ever read THE TEENAGE LIBERATION HANDBOOK? I wish I had when I was in high school, that and Atlas Shrugged.

"We don't need no education" indeed. Not that kind.

Your teacher is an as*hole faithhead, permanently brain-damaged by the poison known as Political Correctness.

This is what our 'brilliant' education system teaches it's students: To appease and kowtow to superstition, barbarism, cruelty and immorality is pardoned as long as an imaginary friend called "god" is attached to it. Even a mass murderer who kills in the name of Allah is can not be condemned (he is only condemned as a criminal, not as a religous murderer).

This is especially true in case of coloured people. Westerners can not crititize the blacks or Asians as if that is 'racist'. But guess what? Doing that tantamounts to racism itself. We call that inverse racism, where you reserve your crititisms only to people of your own skin colour. Calling a spade a spade is honest, not racist, but they don't know that since it is not in their school syllabus. Note that I am a coloured myself, but I find the reverse racism in the name of multiculturalism practiced by the West really disgusting. I mean Kwanzaa, Eid Fitri, Diwali is allowed, but Christmas changed to "happy holidays?". This is crazy!

Schools are for idiots and idiots are the ones who would enjoy studying under their education system. We, the open-minded intellectually honest individuals have to pretend to be parrots in the meantime in order to get the f*****g degree and leave the school for good. And then when we succeed, the very same education system gets the credit. :evil:

Riani, that's a good example of bad teaching. The teacher's statement implies that they're teaching you to be non-controversial and not offend people, regardless of whether your work is good or your ideas are right.

I have had teachers who are good, though. One English teacher passed (with merit) an essay that she personally disagreed with, where I defended p2p and copyright infringement on moral grounds. My current math tutor has never yet dodged a question, even ones that aren't on topic.

I think that learning is equally about the teacher and the student, and go out of my way to find and stay with good teachers.

I only had one good teacher at school who fought the system to enter my music GCSE in despite the fact that I had recently ran away from school FOREVER due to a nervous breakdown. (I was only 15...) Thank's to that ONE teacher, I have a B grade in music. Apart from that, I hated my school. The teachers were mean, one regularly insulted me, one time calling me a ret*d and I was bullied all the time and no one did ANYTHING to help. It has now been four years since I left but the memories still haunt me every day. Heck, I was even diagnosed with PTSD for a little while (look it up if you don't know what it is...). It does get easier eventually.

Oh and as for that 6th sense thing, I had a similar thing except I predicted that 1. my rabbit would die soon (she was only 1 1/2 and she did die) and 2. that my support tutor would be in an accident. When I spoke to her afterwards, I told her the time (before she told me) that I got the premenition and she told me it happened an hour afterwards! Weid huh... Oh yeah and school sucks... (but don't quit... you'll regret it.)

The main reason though, why I dread going to school is that 90% of the teachers are so over-dramatic and they bring that into the classroom.
