Americans Are Concerned About Direction Of Public Education, Polls Show

Two new polls show contradictions and partisan divides in the public's opinion of education.

Or, when you click on on it...

Americans Like Their Schools Just Fine — But Not Yours

Which says...

However, public opinion of the nation's schools overall, as opposed to one's local school, is much lower: Just 25 percent would give an A or B grade to American schools as a whole.

...although the Gallup poll found public approval of U.S. education at a low ebb, parents like their own kids' schools. Seventy-six percent say they are satisfied with the education their oldest child has been receiving. That figure has been pretty stable for 16 years.

In conclusion, my town is at least 3X better than whatever shithole you harken from.

now i understand, and i would really like to help little girls i hear.

mere-exposure effect. i guess this is quite applicable to people nowadays. ah, actually i believe this "effect" really is effective! so what is mere-exposure effect all about? if you're studying psychology, you'd get this easily. but if you don't have any idea, go google it up. :)) naa. to describe it simply, it occurs when one person develops attraction to a person who's always present around him/her. mere-exposure - - the more you get exposed to an object, the more you like it or develop a liking attitude towards it.

another ideology i've come to accept..

when girls are lonely, sad, disheveled, distressed, depressed, unhappy, sorrowful, grieving, gloomy, lifeless, desperate, broken, wistful, disheartened, or in short - sad - they easily fall for the first guy who'd show them helpful attention, or assistance, or consoling. as years have come, i now really understand why this is so true.

to sum up, if you're reading this, and you're a guy - - - do not dare expose yourself to lonely girls if you do no intend to stay and be loved! ahahaha, i guess, you have to be careful around girls, especially lonely girls. don't get too much affected by their gloom that you're gonna hand over yourself AND BE ALWAYS AROUND into comforting them because they'd see different angles from that - - and soon enough you're breaking them more without intending to do so.

Perhaps this explains it because I really was not fond of you before I could never escape from your presence.

"The exposure effect (also known as the mere exposure effect) is a psychological phenomenon by which people tend to develop a preference for things merely because they are familiar with them. In social psychology, this effect is sometimes called the familiarity principle. In studies of interpersonal attraction, the more a person is seen by someone, the more pleasing and likeable that person appears to be."
