The Educational system is SICK and we shouldn't loose track of it anywhere in this thread and for a moment...
IN a thread that is against stupidity, I don't want to say something here, but feel I really need to and the anger of it might to some sound a little
stupid (I suppose mostly anger is stupid lol) BUT it pisses me off none the less
I had RETARDED kids in my class as a child and I had an IQ as high as 186 (scores varied none under genius by even a close margin)
and my teacher was catering to a person with an IQ of 60...
How can we ever have a functional society when people like myself are utterly neglected and... people who are helpless are encouraged to be are labor
force and have thier hands held all the way to that goal...
I'm sorry Retarded kids belong in a special place, I can see where some self esteem is built by giving them jobs and so on, but... just as often they
are victimized...
I see studies that say...it helps, but in RL I see and endless barage of teen age punks abuse them at the Burger King Counter and... I just don't get
it...
I don't see why big houses with special staff and...the ability to live free of that kind of pressure and degredation isn't a better answer...
Is it that much of a slave state that rather than build special homes for the impaired we have to force them to .... work and pay taxes and rent an
apartment
You know... I live in a really nice area... like all weel to do locations The ghetto however is only a couple of miles down the road and...
That's where all the Retarded (and I say it rather than special for the proper Impact) The Retarded people that work... all live inthe Gheto now...
and it's not safe for them... I see them walking along through punks and thugs and KNOW they are being abused...
So I got no help as a Genius and for all this Special Ed... RETARDS are now loose in the worst neighborhoods in the USA, slaves in fast food
restauraunts... and I got nothing,
It really makes me want to kick someones Arse... it's an Insanity... Put Corky in a house with a farm and other "special needs" people, give them
farm animals to feed and ...you know, let them cook eggs and hit each other in the head withj frisbes in a nice big beautiful field
I mean...what? Did someone get Jealous that Retarded people had a better life than those of us who had to work? Are we that jealous and pathetic...
Because that's where those special kids are, on the corner with hoods and hookers and pimps... you can tell, it's the guy in the crowd with the
Helmet on his head... and I swear to G_D I have seen this in recent weeks... literally.
And those that could... do almost anything for society got NADA done to let us excell...
Why did the "special kids" get Millions and Millions and no one built me and the Asian kid a Laboratory...
I poke some fun in this ... but realy the accelerated kids were just as stand out as the retarded kids in our own way
I remember the one time in my life we acctually got our own class... but we were always a group until I passed puberty and (thank g-d unlike the slow
version I could learn to blend)
But it was me, The skinny Jew, My Asian friend (not always the same kid but ever present) always... all sorts of other kids, nerds of all kinds...
But every year as a given I the Jewish Kid and my Asuian Companian of the year were up on that stage takeing all the awards lol...
Even when I droped out of HS finally...
this is sad... in a funny way... (and why it miffs me the slow got all the help I got none)
On my GED I got a perfect score plus the 40 bonous points...
2 kids in the State pulled that off... and, this is NYC btw...
and there I was at a special graduation (The frackin Mayor was there) getting yet another award
Me ...lol and my Asian Pal who I met 10 minutes earlier... the 2 Perfect scoreing dropouts... being honored for our achievements in front of the city
for Failing out with the best scores...
something just Poetic and wrong in this all huh?
People say the stereo types are all wrong but I'm sorry... it's always been my nerdy Jewish but up on that stage in compettition with some Asian Kid
as long as I can remember...
