This was sad yet fascinating. I'm sorry. I laughed a little bit at the title ๐ญ. I know it's hard to deal with children but how are you making children your enemies?! Especially at such a young age.

iโve seen a massive uptick of posts where teachers are talking about how awful and cruel their students are and it turns out they teach at a middle school. like yeah. of course theyre evil. theyre 13. being evil is kind of a requirement for that age. there seems to be a cultural amnesia as to what it was like to be young and trying to figure stuff out. if anything, i feel like kids these days are more understanding of diversity and any generation before them. a current middle schooler wouldnโt call me a queer, theyโd make a much more cutting and hurtful remark about my appearance #progress also if your first reaction to your students misbehaving is to kvetch about it on reddit, maybe find a different line of work

my freshman year of high school i went to a new school and i didnt know how to do school well bc i have learning disabilities. it was an academically rigorous traditional school and i forgot to do my homework bc i was bad at planning ahead and like generally keeping track of things. anyway like the first week of this new school i get to class and got called on about the homework and i had to say in front of the class that i forgot. this teacher was known to be an odd ball/old school and he yelled at me and sent me out of class and asked me and told me only to return when i was prepared and ready to learn. needless to say i was stunned and packed up my stuff and ran out crying. i mean i was literally like 14.
this then became the folklore everyone told new students about this teacher and it got passed down but no one realized it was me and when i became like a senior i would tell freshman and they were like that was you?!?!
anyway this teacher years later got clocked for sexual misconduct and buying kids alcohol lol

i went to an all-girls boarding school in western Massachusetts. almost got expelled, DID get suspended for some dumb, regular teenage shit that the faculty reacted to like i was an actual felon instead of a 15 yr old, formerly homeschooled goody-two-shoes. anyway, it recently came out that one of the history teachers that has been there for 30 years was grooming and SA'ing girls and the faculty had been covering it up. luckily i was never involved with him, never had a class with him, but its still weird knowing that he was a dorm parent and would do week-end nightly check-ins in the dorms, he lived at school with us practically, had a house directly next to campus, etc. i wasn't close with him but i KNEW him, he gave me bad vibes, and now 30 years later all his shit and the schools shit is getting aired out. feels good to be vindicated in my suspicions and the unfair treatment of students at that hellschool but my heart goes out to the many victims, named and unnamed, that he violated over the years.
