Unless one of your parents don't work and you're home schooled, there's no way out until you're 16. This injustice has left me traumatized. My home life was terrible and to have to put aside my problems to learn that bullshit in school, nearly killed me literally. How can anyone go along with this and be fine with it.

They didn't teach me what to do if you're abused. They didn't teach me how to stand up for myself. They didn't empower me in any way, instead indoctrinating me with slavery. To always do as you're told, is to follow a blind master right into a pit.

So I picked up smoking, ran away often, and turned into an outcast. Everything I know, I learned on my own in a vain attempt at liberating myself. Now I'm trying to quit smoking and become a better person, but the mental wounds of forced education ain't healing easily.
