Trouble at School

School, instead of offering stability, became another battleground. Academics eluded him; homework went unfinished, lessons unabsorbed. Each poor grade carved deeper into his confidence, until self-doubt became a constant companion. Soon, classrooms became cages. He began to slip away—skipping classes, disappearing for hours, then days—until even the thought of school stirred resentment in him. In time, he didn't just struggle with school. He despised it.
