The 'How Teachers At My School Treat Kids' Rant
One of the many bad things about my school is that the teachers have as little respect for the kids as the kids have for them. They actually insult people personally and make fun of them, and they say the most awful things.My English teacher is probably the worst person for this, because she literally told this boy in my class to kill himself once, and a few days ago she told this other boy that she wished a car would run him over. That is just disgusting. It's one thing for a kid to say horrible things to teachers, but another thing for a teacher to say things like that to a kid. The other people at my school do say some terrible things to teachers, but even they don't say things like that to teachers, even though they say things like that to each other. Teachers are put in a place of power and are supposed to care about their students, yet the teachers at my school just don't. Also, my English teacher has literally said before that if she knew someone that was suicidal, she would be angry at them and tell them to kill themselves. That's just horrible as well, and she's just a really bad person.
A few years ago, before I had this English teacher, I had another one that was an even worse person. He insulted the kids in his classes a lot and said horrible things about the very personal issues of kids. He made nearly all of the most horrible and tough kids cry, and he was just such an awful person. When he was a teacher at my school, he did something terrible. He was on Facebook and drinking Coca Cola when he was supposed to be reading with everyone for Reading Challenge Week, and Hair Colour Girl stood up to him and asked why he wasn't teaching us. After she shouted at him, he took her outside and yelled at her. He said that she was 'an idiot, just like her mother', and said that her mum didn't raise her properly. Then he called Hair Colour Girl's mum a really bad word, and everyone heard her run off crying. Then the teacher came back in as if nothing happened and made everyone do spellings, which was not right after what he had done. I was just sickened by that when it happened.
Another thing that my old English teacher did was when we had to listen to this song, and he told us to write down what it reminded us of. I knew the song, because the song was one that I used to listen to while I did painting at my primary school. So I wrote down that it reminded me of that, because it did. Then the teacher told Twerking Bat Boy to tell everyone what the song reminded him of, which was horrible, because if you're going to write something that personal, then you shouldn't be forced to share it with everyone. Twerking Bat Boy said that the song reminded him of his dad and how he was never home, and the teacher literally started screaming at him and saying that he hadn't written what he had said. Which was disgusting, because someone in the class had just shared something extremely personal, and he was yelling at them just because they hadn't written it. Twerking Bat Boy tried to tell the teacher that he was going to write it, and that he just hadn't done it yet, but he still kept shouting at him. He ended up running out of the classroom in tears because the teacher kept yelling at him and saying things about him and his dad. It was just awful, and I felt really sorry for Twerking Bat Boy on that day.
There are other teachers at my school that act like this towards students too. Like one of the Science teachers at my school. She literally makes fun of everything that the kids in my class do, even things that people can't help, and she says really horrible things about people when they make the smallest of mistakes. She also jokes about things like self harm, and she uses kids as examples when explaining offensive questions.
And once, when we had to learn about eating disorders, she literally said that she would 'want to be bulimic so that she could lose more weight and still eat a lot'. She also pretended to stick her fingers down her throat and made weird noises, and taught us that anorexia was a choice, when it isn't. That is just so wrong and disgusting, because many people in the world actually suffer with eating disorders, and they are very serious. Imagine if someone in the class was going through something like that, and they heard what she was saying. People don't think about things like that, and it's just horrible. What she said actually sickened me, and when she told us to copy down her wrong definitions of anorexia and bulimia, I wrote down that they were not a choice, because it really bothered me.
Another horrible thing this teacher has done is when she was talking to the class about something, and she mentioned something that was related to something SkyDoesMinecraft Girl is going through. It upset her, and she started crying. Then the teacher literally walked past her and looked at her while she was crying, and she just looked at her strangely and walked away. She didn't even ask if she was okay or anything, and she clearly saw that she was upset. Teachers at my school don't even care about anyone unless they're a bad kid, and it's just horrible.
My RE teacher acts like this too. When it was my first lesson with her, she told the class that her classroom was a ignorance-free environment, and that she would not accept anyone being homophobic, racist, ableist or offensive in any way that could hurt someone. But literally about two minutes later after she said this, she made a joke about OCD, and then she shouted something to another teacher out of the classroom door that involved her using Down syndrome as an insult. That's disgusting, and it's so horrible that she can tell everyone not to say anything offensive, and then say things like that. Also, she doesn't even do anything when the kids in the class say things like that, when she should. She even said that she would, but she didn't, because she probably couldn't be bothered. I really wish someone would try to educate people at school on these kinds of things, though. They need to learn that the things they say are awful and can affect people. But even if they did know it was offensive, they probably wouldn't really care, and they'd continue to say the things they say. Because that's the kind of people they are.
Most of the teachers at my school are like this, and it really bothers me, because teachers should respect the kids in their lessons. I know that the kids at my school are really bad, but how can they learn to respect people when the adults at my school don't even respect them?

Also, joking is a way to cope with things. 9/11, people get depressed hearing it. I guess someone wanted people to not feel so guilty even though its not their fault.
