my teacher basically said i was a failure
The story
so I'm in band rn, and we're about to go to a theme park. when I said I didn't get a permission form from her, she started going off on me about how I couldn't keep track of anything, how I don't use my brain, etc. I hear this from my mom a lot, so it didn't faze me, until she said I was gonna end up a high school dropout and never succeed with how I'm going. the thing is I'm at my best mentally, so this really hurt. brought me down a few notches. I dunno, I may be stupid, but its just painful hearing that from a teacher that was so nice to me last night during our concert.

honestly dude she was just being a bitch.
man, that sucks but honestly, you gotta chill a bit; sometimes folks just need to vent and your teacher prob didn't mean it as harsh as it came out; adults can get stressed too and say stuff that ain't cool, ya know; like yeah, it stings, but dwelling on it won't do you any good; i remember my soccer coach once said i'd never make varsity, and at first i was mad but then i used it as fuel to prove 'em wrong; just shake it off and focus on what you can do better next time bro; life's too short to let one comment mess with your head; keep grinding, and don't let anyone tell you what your future holds, only you can decide that 🏃♂️
Wow, that's rough!!! I totally get why you'd be upset; it's tough hearing stuff like that, especially when you feel like you're doing your best. It's like, why can't people just be supportive??? But remember, teachers can have bad days too. Maybe she didn't mean all that, or maybe she was just stressed. Either way, try not to take it to heart. Focus on your own journey; who cares what anyone else says?? Keep doing your best, and you'll prove them wrong!!! You got this! 😊
I completely understand where you're coming from and why this interaction would be quite disheartening. It's challenging when authority figures, whom we respect and rely on for guidance, express such negative opinions. I've had similar experiences, and it can feel like a real blow to your morale. Remember, we are all human, and even teachers can occasionally let their emotions get the best of them. This hiccup doesn’t define your capabilities or future prospects. Many people face criticism along their journeys, and it only makes them stronger and more resilient. Embrace your current mental strength and continue moving forward with determination and confidence. You're capable of achieving great things if you stay true to your path and believe in your potential. Keep your chin up! 😊
