So school starts soon and guess what? I'm not done with ANY of my projects! I swear, the person that came up with summer reading should umm die a terrible terrible death. First of all, forcing kids to read something they don't want to read and making them do projects for it isn't going to get them to read more often. And that's the goal of teachers that assign summer reading. They want kids to read more. Hello. If you're forcing a student to read when they don't want to, you're just reinforcing how much they hate to read. And for those who've already read all the books on the planet, c'mon, is it really fair to make them read the stupid books on that stupid list?
I think not.
And projects over the summer? Look, we're kids. When we graduate high school and college, we're going to have to spend our summers working (usually) so why can't we enjoy being kids now? People force so much maturity on children nowadays it's quite revolting. I feel like i need to scream to adults everywhere that CHILDREN ARE SUPPOSED TO BE CHILDREN! HELLO! That's the joy of having a child, watching them grow up and enjoying their lives while they can, before reality comes and smacks them in the face. No wonder kids are into drinking and drugs (not that i think that's a reason to do shit like that)! We're always so stressed out. And if we want to take some time for ourselves, guess what? We either have a job, homeowrk, chores, school, practice for a sport, a meeting for some type of organization, SOMETHING.
This is a bit ridiculous. Normal children HATE, no LOATHE school. This just makes it eighty times worse. Give it a rest people. Since 2003, the teen suicide rate has increased. WONDER WHY THAT IS?! Yes, i understand that there's also depression and mental health to consider when people commit suicide, but depression can start from too much stress.
I'm quite afraid for this generation of youth.
Maybe teachers and all the other people that continually try to run areas of our lives where they shouldn't be can get the hint.
