This. I mean, if the prison lite that is school (love that term) is better than a child's home life, doesn't that speak to deeper issues? Maybe GP should try no

This. I mean, if the prison lite that is school (love that term) is better than a child's home life, doesn't that speak to deeper issues? Maybe GP should try not to excuse the stories from the Hellmouth[0] that is school by saying that home life is worse for some children.
I for one, don't see how my being stuffed into a locker was conducive to any sort of "learning experience", and I've always had problems staying awake in lectures since as far back as I can remember. Give me books any day of the week.
A one size fits all approach is shitty for everyone, both those "privileged" to suffer at school, and those for whom it is an escape from a broken home.
