Have any of you felt it was unfair, That you did your best in a test, Yet you got shitty marks (or so they say) And your parents force you to do more work, As punishment? Have you ever felt it was unfair, If you were doing your best, But just couldn't perform well, And people tell you, " If you're not gonna do well, I'm gonna confiscate your ____ (insert word of choice)"? Question: Is Threat and Punishment, supposedly another form of motivation? Or, really just a form of entertainment for others? To see others in despair and frustrated? Edit:// It's 2015 and I'm clearing posts to restart my blog. I deleted the bottom part of this post haha but I shall leave the top here because I think it is an intriguing question. Perhaps when I'm free I will come back and edit this section :)
