Maybe because the teachers don't want them to fail the grade and repeat the grade ALL over again. They act like we are their children sometimes. They love us and they want us to pass the grade. Teachers need to be strict for students to learn and focus and not be distracted. cheese

If one teacher cant teach all subjects how do they expect kids to learn all subjects? LOL

I might as well speak up as one of those that doesn't find school that hard. I just find that if other kids would actually try (because most of them can give A LOT more effort), then they'll do much better. I do understand those that just struggle in subjects, but majority just struggle and give up rather than go to tutoring or actually attempt to understand it, as opposed to memorizing the material.

With self-application and well-planned agenda, I find myself needing something else to juggle, or I might get bored.

Why is school hard for kids? Probably due to the lack of freedom when it comes to association. School is basically just a bunch of hormone enraged tribal mindset children forced to co-habitate on one single piece of land, with the additional assumption made that there is something to be "won" at school that doesn't actually exist but nonetheless is assumed to be there thanks to t.v. tropes and social conditioning.

If you removed all of the social anxiety that is placed on kids, and you were able to remove the anxiety that some kids have at home (from households where life is el infierno) then you would find that for most kids this subjects aren't hard, the material isn't too vast, it is just that when you have to juggle "I'm supposed to have intimate relations, and be a part of a social group, and also not have intimate relations, and also be an individual, and also get good grades, but not get such good grades that everyone thinks I'm a freak, and also adhere to whatever social conventions are typical to my region, and also enjoy the moment while planning for the future..."

Its tough because you're a freaking kid. When I was a kid every class I took was incredibly easy, to the point that since I could get B's and above without having to put maximal effort into it, I chose to not put maximal effort into because, well, look at all the things I've listed in the paragraph above that kids have to deal with.

It is insane that we even let our kids go to these places, high school doesn't prepare you for the real world, it prepares you to be an melancholy unsympathetic monster.

Usually you hate High School during High School... but then look back on it as one of the best times of your life.

If I could do it all over again (knowing what I do now)... I would.

You know, school I didn't mind too much. I only hated it. But each class seemed to require two to three hours of work daily outside of school. That seemed ridiculous to me. Life after school has been quite relaxing to me comparatively speaking (but then I never had children or got married...so...)

Yep. As a student I can relate. It's hard, but every second is worth it.

Not all kids think it's hard. Depends on what they've been doing with themselves. If they like to learn things and like to see how others learn (or don't, and wonder why), they can enjoy school.
