What happened to your school bully?
He died.Here is what the article with the picture says:“Marc-André Pépin, 17 years old, has been struck down by a meningitis infection last Tuesday.The Public Health Direction of the Montérégie will not be ordering a massive vaccination campaign against meningitis following the death of a teenager this week in Saint-Hubert.The authorities think this is an isolated case. Last Tuesday, Marc-André Pépin, 17 years old, has been struck down by meningitis, a few hours only after the apparition of the first symptoms.The Public Health Direction of the Montérégie believes that the young Pépin could have been infected with the C type bacteria.This is the third death due to meningitis in Quebec since the beginning of the year, but the first in Montreal’s area.”While I had many bullies, from elementary school up to the end of high school, this one is one of the most memorable, because he was steady on his grand scheme, from first year of high school, to the last.There was all sorts of abuse done, both physical and psychological, but it had calmed down a bit in my last year of high school, but then for some reason, he started it up again. I was very much fed up with him and wished with all my heart that he could just disappear, or better yet, just die.That year, I think there were about 10 cases of meningitis in the province of Quebec, which were all in the Quebec city area, except this one. It also was the most virulent and aggressive death of them all. This happened just after the graduation ball, and I remember that people had shared drinks with him - they had to give everyone who drank in the same soda can antibiotics as a preventive measure.Do I feel guilty about this ? Absolutely not. It’s a weird coincidence he died, but I had nothing to do with it, and I was not sad either because well, he was an abusive jerk who preyed on me every chance he got. Insensitive ? Maybe a little, but then it’s difficult to have lots of empathy for someone who thought it was ok to spit in your hair, steal from you, call you ugly and corner you with his buddies to threaten you, or to beat you up.You can see here the original short article about his death, in French here: Méningite: pas de campagne de vaccination massive à Montréal
Another mother yelled at my kid?
My daughter and this other girl were good friends. One day, out of the blue, this kid got upset at something my daughter did (befriended a new student). She told her mother and her mother high tailed it to the school, sought my daughter out and took a strip off of her. This happened last March (2012), I have tried contacting her; she avoids me at ALL costs (its actually quite hilarious the lengths she goes to avoid me!) and will not return any of my phone calls. The teachers and Principal are aware of all of this, but nothing is getting done. The kid constantly tries to get my daughter in trouble; saying things that just aren't true or haven't happened. The teacher & principal say they have to believe what this kid and her mother are saying. I am so dam frustrated, I just want to knock all of their heads together to get them to wake up. This is bullying. My daughter is not perfect, but she is only 10 and learning how do handle relationships. This other kid is getting instructed by her mother on what evil things to say and do. it will take a book to explain everything this woman has done to us during the past year. How can I put an end to this???
Please help me? I'm being called a wh0re and guys are cornering me?
Now, obviously, at your sorry school, telling teachers and counselors and school officials won't do a d*mn thing, because after all, YOU'RE the one they sent to the principal's office because SOMEONE ELSE taped a cruel sign to your back. Don't cry in front of them. Toughen up instead. They'll see your tears as SHAME and think that the rumor's true. If you don't defend yourself, you'll end up being the victim of a bunch of guys' sick fantasies (raped, hurt, teased until you're wounded for life, etc). Sick people feel like they always have to have someone to hate. Unfortunately you were an easy target, probably because you're sweet and don't know how to defend yourself. I think you should confront the girl that started the whole thing. And confront her in a way that scares the sh*t out of her (she's more of a chicken than you think), if you know what I mean. When everyone finds out that you dominated her instead of the other way around, they'll probably start laughing at her, instead. It's easier than you think-- I got sick of this one girl in high school that kept telling everyone that my little sister was a wh0re and was having sex with all the guys in our high school. She was still a virgin, for heaven's sake. I didn't wait until the girl was a lone--I waited until she had all her friends around her, instead. I walked into the middle of the circle of girls and stood right in her face and sneered and said "Hi, April. How are you? I heard you've been spreading nasty rumors about my sister. I suggest you watch it." That's ALL I had to do. She turned pale, started shaking, and literally RAN away from me. She never bothered either one of us again. And I MAYBE weighed 100 pounds at the time that happeend.
How many times have you been suspended from school?
I've got a long track record before I settled down and started to do something constructive with my life. 5th Grade - Got suspended 1 time for 3 days for looking up porn on the class computer. My boy put a naked girl on all the computer backgrounds in the class and they suspended everybody who was back there and I was one of them. 6th Grade - Numerous (at least 7) times. I only went to school a total of 30 days because of suspensions. 7th Grade - Went to school for two weeks before catching 365 (and getting lokked up) for fighting with staff. 8th Grade - Caught 365 after simply not going anymore and got suspended a bunch of times for petty stuff. I got suspended for destruction of property because I threw my hat against the hall. 9th - Moved with my cousin and got suspended 3 times in one week (Cursing out the football coach, tardies, and cursing out the principal). Then I moved back with my mom and just didn't go to school anymore catching 365 again. 10th - One time before skipping class at the end of the year. Everybody was skipping class towards the end but I got singled out. 11th - 365 for an altercation with the assistant principal. 12th - In Alt. Ed now (serving my 365), don't go back until Dec. 7th. I prolly won't be going back until March though because I need a vacation.
What's the craziest reason a kid got suspended at your school?
Once a couple of sixth graders were vaping during class. They asked to use the bathroom, and vaped there before returning and pretending everything was normal.They got so arrogant they showed a girl that one of them liked. She told a friend of hers who we’ll call J, who told me and one of my best friends. The first thing we decided to do was to ask the girl to take photos so we could report them.She got the photos and gave them to us. We were only a couple days away from telling the administrators when this happened.“Oh, did you hear? So-and-so told the principal that sixth graders were vaping!”Darn. He beat us. I asked J about it and she angrily told us the consequences everyone had received:Of the three boys caught vaping, one was the principal’s son and the other his best friend. So naturally they weren’t even reprimanded. The other boy was suspended for two days.Annnnnnd drumroll….The boy that told the principal was suspended for three days.He was suspended for telling the principal his son was breaking the rules. He was suspended for doing the right thing.And we were only a couple of days away from telling them. We could’ve gotten suspended for telling them instead of that poor boy.I guess they really don’t like tattletales.
My Geography Teacher Makes me Feel like a Retard?
First of all, no offence to people who like Geography but I think its a pretty useless crappy subject. I'm not particularly interested in the track of hurricane etc etc... Anyway our Geography project was due in on Monday so I got a memory and stick and plugged it in. But because I'm not an expert in coding and technology I had NO idea that saving Microsoft Windows into a memory stick wouldn't work on a Mac at school. So my teacher got really pissed off and started shouting at me in front of the whole class "I would thought you at least knew that apples and windows worked differently! " I'm not bringing up a pathetic excuse or anything but I'm a 13 year old boy who started Computing this year and all my life I've been using Windows until they introduced the macs. So she starts making me feel like a douche in front of the WHOLE CLASS. She started yelling and shouting at me and I will admit that I'm autistic and I HATE it when people look me in the eye and shout. So I looked away and tried REALLY hard not to put my hands over my ears because then it would be "rude" which I don't think it is because I'm just protecting my ears from being blasted. She got the wrong idea and gave me a detention for being "disrespectful" . She shouted at me for like 10 minutes and in the end I kinda cried....okay I cried because I was really scared because I've never gotten a detention before and I didn't know why I was in trouble until my mum told me. How do I face her next week ?
