#3 About Recess Injustice

Recess is worse than it seems. Teachers would like to think that it's just time for the kids to play outside, and have fun, and that it's all juuuuust fine. Well, it's not. And it's not like the teachers don't know about it, because they do. They just don't care. If someone scrapes their knee, the teacher finds out and comes over with a band- aid. But if someone complains to the teacher about someone else insulting or teasing them, he/she will just say "Oh, well you two can just work that out by yourselves than, okay?" Actually, it's not okay, because they'll never "work that out" in any real situation. And it's not just insulting and teasing either. There's physical conflict too. You have to watch out on the playground because people aren't afraid to just come up and trip you at random moments for no particular reason. When you tell the teacher about it, she/he just won't accept that the kids are being jerkfaces just because it's a Christan school, and so instead of actually doing something about it, he/she will just say " Mmmhmm, that's nice," not even looking at you. It just doesn't occur to them that maybe, just maybe, SOME OF THE KIDS DON'T CARE ABOUT THE RULES!

Hopefully someday, the teachers will care.
