Why Smart Kids Rebel

A side effect of being intelligent is "laziness". Smart people learn quickly, and one of the things they learn is that there is a lot of work that doesn’t actually need to get done. Conservation of energy is a major driving force in all natural systems. So when smart, young people encounter unnecessary use of energy, they are typically quick to limit participation.This means cutting corners, skipping school, not doing homework, or any number of other behaviors that get identified as being lazy, bad, or wrong. Smart kids are smarter than the adults who are just following orders, so their behavior is sometimes misinterpreted as being lazy.

I ditched school half of my junior year & a good portion of my senior year. I had a calculus teacher, that happened to be my home room teacher as well. I went to the home room class, because of attendance recording, but never the calculus class. She had an equation on the board that I solved. She asked who did it & some big mouth blurted out my name. She looked into my transcripts & she saw something in me I didn't. She gathered up make up assignments & test from my other teachers. I knocked that shyte down in a week's time. Now I am caught up so that, I only did half a day for the rest of my schooling. I was just not being mentally challenged enough to keep my interest there. Plus the teachers had personal issues that spilled off into the classroom & that bored me tremendously. I ended up getting me a job afterschool, so I could line my pockets up with them greenbacks & to keep outta unsuspecting trouble.
I was Guinea pigged in elementary school!!! The muthaphuckaz kept telling me I could fit a round peg into a square hole. Mentally I knew this couldn't happen, but the teacher, Mr Soda, imagine that, kept telling me that I could do it. Well it only pissed me off & I jammed it in so hard that it did stick. I believe that was the reaction he was looking for anyway because he gave me an eiree azz grin afterwards. I think I use to turn into something beastly. I can remember destroying a head start classroom too. I don't remember why, but I do remember that I did. There is a beast in me dying to get out & seems like this community trying to trigger me to unleash that beast, but since I am the one that gotta control that part of me, I don't allow my self to get that triggered & I don't like fighting myself, so that bitch gone stay at bay & mentally caged. If I don't like her, you won't either.
