> thinking that anyone with extra learning are punishing everyone else in class

I never said this and do not think this.

I was attempting to provide more nuance to the situation and evidently failed.




i'm going to go out on a limb and say that starting a conversation by calling someone a prick is just not going to be received well. at. all.

how about teachers should be much less aggrieved that an elementary student is probably smarter than they are. when a student shows initiative to learn something on their own, rather than being an ignorant person and send the kid to the principal's office because they think the kid made a bomb or is learning maths at a pace faster than the hayseed teacher is.

see, that whole paragraph has a point that would probably be made much more acceptable if I didn't phrase it in an insulting manner
