Okay. So this is basically a conversation for EVERYONE who would like to join in on the convo.

Basically, anyone.

Anyways...welcome!!!

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

Did you know that US schools are behind most first-world countries in academics.

But they are first in self-esteem.

Win.

Hey! My tax dollars don't go to Krayohla.

And the reason for [up]that is because we don't think that education is worth paying money for.

No, most schools are fairly well funded (shocking, isn't it?), but they spend money very poorly.

They also don't want children to have low self-esteem, so they hold the smart/hard working kids back so the dumb/lazy kids feel better about themselves.tongue

Not to mention they don't prepare them for the real world, but that doesn't stop them from trying!

Barely trying.

A wonderful story from a college somewhere:

A philosophy teacher is giving his students a final exam, and places a chair on the desk at the front of the room with the prompt on the chalkboard reading "Disprove the existence of this chair."

Soon after the final begins, students begin furiously writing in their Blue Books, except for one, who writes something quickly and turns in his book. His response?

"What chair?"

He was the only one to get an A.

[up][up]I think this is one of those fun tall tales that changes colleges every time it's told. Still a good story.

[up]That's not surprising; my library has Fullmetal Alchemist up to volume 12, and a lot of Naruto.

Mine didn't even have the Harry Potter books, because they were evil.

[up][up][up]My school library is surprisingly lax for being in a rural town in the Bible Belt; in fact, they've got a better selection of books than the public library disregarding comics.
