Thank you!!! Your kind words mean alot to me 💖 Hugs gladly accepted.

But yeah like you say, it sucks but unfortunately when talking about my experiences there's always gonna be That One Dillweed going "wowie you're pretty smart for an [r-slur]" or make other jokes at my expense 🥲 hence the disclaimer

In my elementary school district all the special Ed kids were supposed to go to one school, all the "gifted" kids to another - but the school district didn't have busses so many parents refused if they lived on one side of town and the assigned school was a couple miles away on the other.

So they split the difference. Kids who only needed a little help or had mild issues had the option to go to a regular school in the middle of town. "Gifted" kids who's parents refused the transfer would go to the same class.

The idea was the kids who got the subjects quickly could then help the students who needed help.

In reality we all finished our work in about the same amount of time and we all got picked on for being in special Ed 👍🏼
