    Not doing homework as a kid. Got to have a full childhood with lots of independent fucking around that has shaped my personality for the better. Tested out of school, and now me and those of my cohort who tried are all in the same boat anyway.

      Were you homeschooled? That’s the only way I can imagine a kid could escape homework, because traditional shitty schools require homework. Because schools’ objective is to make children miserable & accustomize them to the agonizing relentless pressures of responsibility. I’m sincerely happy for you that you broke free from that bullshit & found true enjoyment in childhood, while traditional shitty schools rob children of their childhood joy 😥

        The way I avoided home work in the 80s was not do it and not care about the repercussion, though I did drop out at 16 and get my GED.
