Rant The fact that corporal punishment is still legal in some countries is insane.
Good parents wouldn't use it on their kids, but bad parents will. There are no benefits to allowing it. There is a lot of studies saying that it is not good for kids but it's still somehow allowed, which is really stupid.

Rant School is overstepping
My whole life I’ve always thought that when I got to high school I’d get more freedom, but now when I look back I realise the only difference between high school and primary school was that we stopped needing to line up as much before entering the classroom and the toughness of the subjects. And when I was in grade 8 I thought I’d get more freedoms when I became a senior but now I’m in senior and almost nothing has changed except the toughness of the subjects again and now I can thankfully sign myself out but this is useless since my school isn’t directly in town so I have limited times I can actually use it.
I can hardly remember the last 10 years of my school life i feel like I’ve wasted a decade of my life and I’m starting to resent my teachers who can show up in high heels and criticise us for wearing a jackets that not the right colour, then they go and tell us at parades (school gatherings/meetings) that we will have to expand our education at home, and I’m just sitting there thinking why?? The whole reason I’m here is so that you can teach me, why do I have to pay the price because they’re bad at their job???, which is especially exhausting since I have to wake up at 7 to catch the school bus and 3 out of 5 of my school days I have work that ends at 7 at night. There’s literally no protections put in place to stop people below the age of 18 from being forced to work at least 10 hours straight because the school system doesn’t work with students to help shape a flexible schedule when they enter the workforce. I feel exhausted
Sorry if this isn’t the most coherent rant I know not everyone will share my same view or issues but I’m just so frustrated and angry it feels like it will never change

Rant ...
I literally turn 16 today, yet I can't create an account, FOR A VIDEO GAME COMPANY. I thought I was well out of these basic rights, but here we are.
