True, looking back, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. However, at the time, Jr. High seems like you are going through hell for some people. Just because we are past that stage, that doesn't mean we should expect 11-14 year olds to mature overnight and feel better about going to a building where they are constantly bullied (or whatever else problem is bothering them).Originally Posted by Dignified Pauper
Fine, I'll elaborate.Well one person atleast.
To the people who are giving "the friend" crap: My, my...how easily we forget what a pain in the ass Jr. High was. Anyone who says Jr. High was fun is either lying or plain ****ing delusional.
Jr. High isn't nearly as bad as anyone makes it out to be. Yes, it is MORE cliquey than highschool and it's that stage where kids are mean to eachother, but guess what, everyone goes through it care-free. You act as though Jr. High is so hard. It's not. Highschool demands more work to be done. so that sure isn't. Just because kids are their meanest in Jr. High doesn't make it horrible. Hell, in kindegarten, kids will beat the hell outta eachother.
Regardless. This thread is stupid and doesn't deserve the spam General
Chat has to offer.
And I never said or acted like Jr. High itself was hard (especially if you were assuming I meant school work, or something). I just was overexaggerating my point (when I said the delusional bit).
And kids being mean is always horrible. Sure, I don't expect everyone to get along. And yes, I was a jerk on some days too. However, what pissed me off about both Jr. High and High School was that it seemed everyone was going out of their way to make eachother as miserable as possible. I went to both Jr. High and High School in a very good district. And it's like, we have all these opportunities for an excellent education in front of us, and what do students do? Girls treat school like a goddamn fashion show and boys have to pick fights with anyone who is slightly different than them.
And this should be in EoEo, yes.
P.S. "Why don't you post more often Sephex?"
Answer: Because if you dare to have a differing opinion on the internet, it really upsets people. Hiding behind a computer screen sure gives people some balls (and no, that wasn't directed at anyone, forget about what witty insult you were going to hurl at me).
