This should be the standard for all of our educators here in the U.S.

I am similar except I understand everything very easily but, I just can't put in the effort because I have had emotional and psychological problems throughout my life. My dad and mom broke apart when I was a child. My mother got into another relationship but my stepdad became a washed out crack addict and my mother yells at her children for everything because she is constantly stressed out of her mind and has medical issues that we are too poor to fix. I haven't had the words to express my feelings until I was 15 and by then I had already dug myself a hole of self hate, anxiety, sleeping 13 hours a day and similar issues. Even though I love learning and it comes very easily to me I just shouldn't be expected to be able to keep up with the stream of work when I can barely get myself to school awake.
