i wonder when ppl will understand that sometimes people on multiple sections of a societal scale will face a disadvantage and need extra help, support, or reparations for those things because the hurt usually stems from the same position of power anyways

#marzi speaks #thinking abt the whole gifted kid/dropout kid thing #or gifted programs vs sped vs what have you #i don’t like how often former gifted kids and former ‘underachievers’ argue with each other over who has it worse #when clearly all of us were damaged by the school system #which sorted and classified children into arbitrary groups at a young age #set expectations that would not change or grow with the children #and then refused to see the children as anything else for the next 12 years #like we were all hurt by the same exact system. let’s team up about that #instead of fighting over a spotlight. let’s share it and remind ppl that hey the education system is fucked up #been thinking abt it with disability too. bc i’m going from a glass child to a disabled adult #and bc my brain never leaves things alone i’m wondering what potential support group convos may end up looking like for #for me*
