Maybe their dad died when they were 14 and they struggled academically through the rest of high school due to the grief. Maybe their mom was an abusive alcoholic and they had to hide in the laundry room some nights and couldn't get to their schoolwork. Maybe they had a hard-to-diagnose learning disability. Maybe they were the only Muslim kid in their school and had a hard to interacting with teachers and other students.
Are these the kinds of answers you are expecting when you ask such an aggressive question, or do you just ask for your own amusement?
- richrichie 3y agoIt appears sensible to me not to take advice on learning from people who have not shown evidence of learning. Much like how we treat medical or health advice. May be you are a rich member of laptop class with kids in private school where every parent is a member of the laptop class and were top 1% of their class. My experience is different.
