I'm Done

Everyone at school is still talking about the Meghan MySpace thing and this link has been passed around. It grosses me out, and has made me want nothing to do with MySpace, so I deleted my whole page.

How can people think anyone pushing someone to kill themselves is okay if that person was a bitch? She was thirteen! Wasn't everyone bitchy then? Shouldn't she have deserved the chance to grow up and grow out of it?

Also, while we're discussing things that gross me out, I wish teachers gave us more credit. I'm capable of talking about more news topics than just Britney Spears. Ugh. I'm just tired of being talked down to. I'm not a fucking idiot.

Just get through until college Sam. You'll be valued far more there. You're incredibly bright and talented - maybe YOU scare them with your brilliance! :) I used to teach English and loved working with all kids, no matter their level/capabilities. But I had to advocate for the Gifted/Talented crowd. They didnt receive the programs and support they deserved. It sucks, I know. hang in there....Thanks for your comments as always! That's a nice memory.

i only had time to look into the megan meier story yesterday and it really is gross. no matter how disturbed or bitchy a girl may be, it doesn't give anyone the right to meddle with her private life. to me it sounds like that woman hasn't quite grown up herself. why would you do such a thing, even to protect your child? i think those parents didn't get that the most important thing is to raise their children into strong and confident personalities, not to use the same childish means of putting each other down.
and myspace IS weird. i've been tempted to delete our account a couple of times, there's so much shit coming in.
