Don't have any money. I'm unemployed, don't you remember?
They pay for that, don't worry you will not lose a dime.

Does this framework help you think about alternative teaching approaches, or would you like me to elaborate on any of these concepts?
I grew up playing at a farm, best thing ever.

BTW, fuck computers. Kids should learn maths and physics because it is generic and can be applied everywhere. Computer crap is outdated 10 years from now.

Also, make them learn university maths directly because it is easier than calculus. Algebraic expressions are easier and give you the foundation of maths. Example. the circumference a 2 meter radius circle is 4π and exactly that. Learning algebraic calculations is the key.

Hello, this is going to be a complicated topic, but I feel the need to vent, even if it’s just here.


My brother has always been a more introverted person, which wasn’t helped by his big issues with self-confidence. I’ve kind of always been the person he would come to when he needed to vent, whether it was about difficulties communicating with people, stress, etc.


This is to say that he came to vent to me a while back and told me that he has a micropenis (according to him—I’ve never verified it, nor has it been diagnosed by a doctor). Apparently, he’s always been really afraid of being with a woman because of this.


I understood that it was a sensitive topic, but I still tried to encourage him to try to meet women.


Well, eventually, he actually started talking to a woman, and according to him, it was going pretty well. Two days ago, he went on another date with her, but he came home relatively early. I can’t quite describe the look on his face, but it was the look of someone who seemed completely dead inside.


After a lot of insistence on my part, he finally told me what happened. The date started off well—they talked, laughed, and the conversation was flowing. After dinner, they went back to her place, and one thing led to another, and they were about to “do the deed” (keep in mind that my brother is still a virgin). According to him, she put her hand down his shorts and started laughing. Literally laughing in his face. She made up some excuse, said she was tired, and asked him to leave.


How do you cheer up someone who’s just been through that? Honestly, I still don’t know. I just gave him a hug and told him he could talk to me whenever he wanted.


I went to bed, spent about 30 minutes on Instagram. I don’t know why, but I felt like I should go check on my brother’s room. He was pale, with the look of someone who had just been caught stealing something. I kept insisting for him to tell me what was going on. Then he admitted that he’d done nothing better than to consume two whole packs of paracetamol.


I rushed him to the hospital, where they washed his stomach and gave him something to protect his liver. I don’t know if he realized the gravity of what could have happened. I genuinely think he wasn’t in his right mind.


All I know is that I’m torn apart, exhausted, and very sad at the thought of possibly losing my brother.


Honestly, I don’t even know the point of this post—I just wanted to vent a bit.

When your son is 15 and still a virgin, you must take him to a prostitute in order to make him understand that females are a commodity and some not unobtainable nobility. Please start saving for that today as you don't want to cheap out too much of sanitary reasons.

Should I take him into the big city and park my car under a bridge and give him a tour of a homeless camp? I always felt like that would help something. But why do that when I can just sit in front of a computer and watch porn? But I kind of feel like if things go sideways... I might regret not trying something.

What is the point of going to a homeless camp?

I guess kind of a "scared straight" type of thing. Like, "this will be your life if all you do in your teenage years is fail everything in school and watch TV"

...and become like me, highly educated on the paper but completely unwanted on the labor market. At the same time we have people like Mark Zuckerberg who is a college drop out but has enough money to buy almost all of Kauai.

The world is a setup, corrupt as hell no matter what you do.

... now as an adult I learn that the history I've learned in school is like 80% bullshit and complete lies.

In short what I'm trying to say is that knowing how to grow food, how to pluck a hen, how to care for livestock, how to build a shed is millions more valuable knowledge that taking some retard university course with is infested with marxist BS anyway.

You have all these possibilities and it is right in front of you and you just let it go to waste.

For example right now I want to build a concrete slab and I don't know fucking thing about.

You are perhaps envious of the land I am on, but having under 20 acres really isn't enough to live off of. Maybe if I was on the east coast where it rains more, or if I had access to a well, but right where I am at it routinely can go two+ months with no rain. That makes it really hard to grow stuff to eat and/or raise livestock. People that seem to be making it with full time farming around here have multiple 100 acre plots, so I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. I am continually trying to think of ways to bring in money with the land. Getting USAD grants and scamming ag insurance seems to be the best I can come up with though.

But this thread is supposed to be about me failing as a father, not me failing as a money provider. Regardless, even if I was on a profitable farm, or had successful self employment, my son more or less refuses to get off of the couch. And that is becoming an issue. He has no motivation to do anything. Seems like I could do something to just make stuff "click" in his mind and he would suddenly realize that having outdoor hobbies isn't so bad after all, or even that reading/learning is cool. But everything I've tried just leads me to being more disappointed.

Maybe tossing him into public school will do something. But I don't think I've ever seen public school fix problems, only make them worse. But I am more or less giving up at this point. I called some local mental health/psychologist place that offers "assessments" for kids. They said the average cost is usually around $2900 :ughlol: I assume most people going there are probably on medicaid/gov assistance. Once again the middle class being pushed out of a service while the poor are propped up.

Actually, you should take him to a laser clinic right away. Laser is the new thing.
