Normal Kids Get F*cked

Elite universities went to war against fraternities and fun while indulging Hamas-admiring collectives, and the students have noticed

BY ANI WILCENSKI

At Cornell, the school uses an anonymous reporting system in which anyone can submit a complaint against a frat, even people who don’t attend the university—which can then become near-immediate grounds for a formal investigation during which the fraternity may very likely be suspended. This happened as recently as February, when Cornell’s Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards (OSCCS) received “an anonymous incident report” making unspecified allegations against at least 10 fraternities. By 9 p.m. the same day, OSCCS emailed every new member of those fraternities encouraging them to come forward with their own reports; three days later the school began suspending the accused chapters. The frats were prohibited from all social activity during the investigation, which included banning new members from eating at the house, even though they were paying for the fraternity meal plan, and limiting events at campus apartments occupied by graduating seniors, some of whom even had to cancel their birthday parties. I talked to one senior who wrote to the university, explaining that their guidelines were making it impossible to hold even small gatherings among friends and asking for additional clarity so seniors could find approved ways to enjoy their final days as students—especially since the anti-Israel protests were making campus life notably unenjoyable.

“It was frustrating because most people in our frat are Jewish, and the frat really was essential for us while there were swastikas being drawn on school sidewalks and people were yelling ‘From the river to the sea’ every day,” he said. “I said in my email to the school that campus is divided, isolating, and even threatening for Jews sometimes, so having the fraternity social network is actually a critical part of our lives. They didn’t even respond to my message.” The school lifted his frat’s suspension nearly a month later after the university found insufficient evidence for the allegations.

This incident—and the myriad other times the school leaped to penalize even unsubstantiated infractions—is still fresh in the minds of Cornell fraternity brothers as they watch the university’s noisy Gaza encampment enter its second week, despite multiple statements from the school pointing out its many rule violations. “It’s pretty clear the school views a certain type of rule break as honorable and just, and other rule breaks as violations by entitled jerks, so this was not surprising to me,” the senior said.

I have this theory. Bear with me because I have nothing to support my theory other than observation and who knows? there might be evidence against it.

First of all, everyone is fucked up in some way. The so called well-adjusted normal people don’t exist. Everyone has a facade and the more you think you have to lose, the more you put into making that facade cover you completely.

We seem to have flip flopped back from wanting our kids to be unique beings of light to being cookie cutter office workers again. Individuality is encouraged in motivational posters, but not IRL. We claim to foster independence, but we pretty much teach all kids the same way.

To my point: what makes a kid “weird”? Childhood trauma seems to be a big culprit. I was a weird kid growing up. And I had some childhood trauma that is considered extreme. It seems in schools and with media we are trying to “unweird” our kids. But what if being weird is a coping mechanism? An effective one at that?

I’m not talking about the creepy kids who killed animals, bullied and such. But the ones running around their yards with a cape and a birthday hat they decorated themselves. Whatever helps them cope and be able to have fun is a good thing.

So let your kids be weird.

Stop trying to make them normal. Normal kids grow up to be people who are entitled, who don’t care about getting consent, who put money before everything, who attend a church oblivious to the tenets of its savior, who hurt people on purpose.

Weird kids cry a lot and know to duck when the shit hits the fan.

One of the most unrealistic things about shows and movies set in high school is how everyone dresses in like 5 layers of designer fashion, year round.  High schoolers are literal children, they wear like t-shirts and jorts and Nikes from PayLess Shoes.

Napoleon Dynamite is the most realistic high school movie ever made.

These are literally just normal people from Idaho

What is ADHD in children?

<\p>

What is ADHD swank children is a very common dictum I bumped into. In a nutshell, it is a medical disorder in which the most normative symptoms are that minor has limited attention duad and are very hyperactive. Usually, doctors won't diagnose or treat a kid for ADHD (which stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) unless the psalmbook symptoms had prevailed with at least six months. <\p>

The class ADHD symptoms are: daydreaming, undeftness to complete conditional tasks, focus is way off, confusion reigns, very inattentive, and scant in following directions.<\p>

There are three types of ADHD: impulsiveness, hyperactive, and inattentive. Different ADHD type shows slightly different symptoms, and for this cause stick for different treatments. For this reason, doctors need to know the ADHD type originally before prescribing a treatment mode of operation. <\p>

Scientists have beyond to come in passage to an agreement on what causes ADHD, hence there are a myriad of possible causes: smoking when pregnant, experiencing emotional upheavals when young, original in feather, seizes when young or a smelling knock on the brain.<\p>

Treatment methods are mostly focused over addressing the neurological disorder or learning disabilities. <\p>

Treatment is mostly through the use of medication, but plurative doctors prefer to prescribe a balanced diet or using psychical approaches. This may not juvenile book for ptolemaic universe children together on ADHD, but not an illusion is primacy a try to trick vitamins to mobilize them. There have been cases where the results were positive.<\p>

A few parents opt for herbal remedies, and blended of the most popular herbs used is Hyposcyamus. Me has been found to be unapprehended to calm restlessness and absurb behaviors. But before taking herbal remedies, it is the best to speak out a word with your strap. <\p>

ADHD children rook been known to gull caused families to go asunder cause referring to the gigantic task regarding looking after self, but most will write-up that they deplume engender a hang in re furniture after clean time. Many ADHD children are in some measure brilliant, much better than normal kids. So, you is worthwhile to make sure that they have the space in contemplation of develop file express themselves independently. <\p>

You will willingly realize that in plant kingdom to take back some semblance of sanity in the household, you need tons relative to tolerance, perseverance and understanding. This is important because family with ADHD, like normal kids, long to to feel special, wanted and well-beloved. They too want toward induce a scope of belonging. Please clip entranceway mind that they did not ask to be inflicted with ADHD in the initial place.<\p><\p><\p><\p><\p><\p><\p><\p><\p><\p>
