An American teenager who completed public school: NO WE ARE NOT OK EVEN AFTER WE LEAVE

2021-11-12

We’re not functioning or ok trust me 😂 nor do we learn anything except for what energy drink will keep us awake

when I was in school it was 7:45, they did a study and found teenagers did better with a 10am start time. then moved school start time to 6:45am 💁🏻

why does everyone out of the US ask if we're ok all the time? the answer is always NO 😭

…. New Zealand is superior there are no more questions

2021-11-12

no we aren’t actually functioning and no we are not okay

My kids start high school at 6:45 AM 😳 I agree teens aren’t functioning yet 😂

Capitalism - the sooner 16yr olds get out of school, the more hours they can work their "after school jobs" & not work passed child labor laws 😒

We usually have school then practice or work then we get home eat and do homework until about 12 1 am then get up at 6ish the next day and repeat

As a former teenager I can confirm we are NOT functioning at 730am

2021-11-12

and what time must teachers have to arrive? As a teacher I can say - NOPE. no

2021-11-12

How do we function? simple😁 we don't

2021-11-12

we have so many studies that show that teenagers do better with more sleep and a later start. but no change to school. 🤷‍♀️

2021-11-12

No... No we are not.

2021-11-12

What time does school end in New Zealand?

2021-11-12

We’re barely functioning 😂😂
