I'd like to further my answer by stating that the person who asked the question asked why do MOST people hate going to school. I am aware that there are teachers who are worthless and who should not be teaching. This would make children not want to attend, but they need to voice that to their parents or counselor so that something can be done about it. The same for cases where they're being bullied or other students are diminishing their learning experience. I am also aware that some people have learning disabilities and need a different environment to learn in where the teachers are trained to teach students with disabilities. I did not say that all students are lazy, just most of the ones that hate going to school.
Report as
The ones that hate going to school could also be a) bullied. b) have a learning disability c) have anxiety d) have mean teachers.
Person who asked the question: so you apply yourself in school. Do you want a reward or something? Good for you! Don't worry about the other kids and stop being so haughty and arrogant and judgmental. It's gross and ignorant.
Report as
It's not that way all the time. Wow. Maybe they try super hard, but they have ADHD or dyslexia, ever consider that? You are extremely ignorant and harsh. Never judge other people-you don't know what their inner struggle is inside or what they go through at home. Stop hating other people.

Hey that's not a great thing to say, bully victims are lazy?

Shaylen, did you even bother to read what I wrote right before you. It's funny, you calling me haughty,ignorant and judgemental. That's exactly how you just came across. Seriously, hating people? You are way out of line here. The person asked a general question, I gave a general answer. You, apparently, are the one in need of a reality check.

You have to go to school no matter if you like it or not to become a contributing member of society. Kids use not liking school or their teachers or fellow students as excuses as to why they don't want to complete their work or even attend school. My parents didn't make my brother go when he would whine an complain and now he's almost 20 years old and still doesn't have a high school diploma. I have no compassion for that, period.

most people don't like school because of the long hours being inside some people like to be outside and active not just sit around inside all day. That or it could be all of the homework teachers assign them because it takes up time to relax or goof off.

through my experience,sometimes a person is chastised and it is not school they hate, but the trauma they face.A lot of people would do well in school if it would not be for the people that hurt them and there feelings.I had a teacher that made me feel that I was trash,so I failed that year because i did not like being in her class.There are many reasons why people hate school but that does not mean that things can change for them.It is up to a teacher to I identify the problem are know that there is one and pull that person aside and make them feel that they can make a difference and that they are very smart .Just the little thing can change a persons life

Awesome! This was the reason I quit my high school. I couldn't deal with the bullying, from teachers and students alike... It was a trauma. School was my ONLY trauma! Isn't that awful? But just cause a person doesn't like school doesn't mean they are lazy! People are so ignorant!

I agree with pickledeggs- some people hate sitting in a class all day- some people don#039;t enjoy doing school work or hw-so I would say maybe it is just laziness, cause I use to feel that way too, but if you think about, the human body and mind was meant to enjoy work and labor, we were designed to work, learn and progress, but if you have a negative attitude it can really destroy that natural human tendency. There#039;s a lot of reasons people can not enjoy school but the most people I#039;ve encountered their answer is cause they don#039;t want to do the work. However people can have other reasons-maybe they are getting teased or bullied or they have mean teachers-some people can#039;t enjoy it with that going on. That#039;s why I hated kindergarten when I was little. (but I lived in a nasty part of town, luckily I moved) but you know what, we all have our issues and flaws, and you seem annoyed that people don#039;t like school which I can understand a bit, but I wouldn#039;t worry about those people. If you like school great! Keep at the good work, don#039;t worry about the others. They most likely will come around.

They may see how other people, although older, did not go to school and work all day. They possibly see working better than school. Many may not like the school they are in for several reasons too.The main reason I believe some students do not like going to school is because of working seems better than having to sit in a classroom for about 8 hours for "nothing." I am not a fan of school, but I went graduated and now in college.

I see friends just going to work and think they are much better off because they make $16 an hour at a factory. When I see them and talk to them about school and work they say they are so glad they did not go which - at the time - I'm thinking 'wow I busting my butt in school not making money while my friend is making money.' I know school is better in the long run, most of the time, but at moments like that it's like I hate school. With that being said yes some may be seen as lazy, but no one never knows the whole story until you ask them what is the reason you hate school and the answer may be homework, you have to get up early, its boring, a waste of time, ect. I hate to get up early but by no means am I lazy. Also, there are students that do better with hands on learning rather than book learning. I know someone, hates school, because not one teacher helped him with his work because he has dyslexia, now that is not the students fault for hating school, but is a reason because he was not able to keep up in class. He went to 3 different schools with the same problem, he kept being held back with no professional help. This would be a great essay topic due to the fact there are numerous reason to why a student hates school other than laziness although that is what people see on the outside without know about the specific student and his/her challenges or reasoning. Oh and also most people say its too early and all but theres typically more to that for some.

Having a learning disability is definitely a reason as to why some people would really hate going to school. I completely agree with you. If they aren't able to attend a school where the teachers and students are knowledgeable with people that have the same types of issues it can be very hard for a person to excel in school or work environments.

Very true ms Morgan! People need to not be so judgmental, we all are fighting our own battle and have challenges that others may not know about.

Bulies are a simple problem..once your anger has eaten away inside and you've had enough you simply and calmly walk up to that person,take out a studded belt then unleash your anger.problem solved.but seriously don't waste you time with people like that they aren't worth it.

I HATED school. I hated the way the teachers taught, I hated the way the teachers were to kids if they weren't cheerleaders, not exciting. If the teachers had put more effort into teaching then I wouldn't have hated it so much. It seemed like the teachers were just as bored as the students, which isn't good! But just cause I hated school doesn't mean I was lazy, like so many people think on here. Some kids don't do well in that type of learning environment. I left school, taught myself, graduated independently and continued on to college. So it depends on the person.

I for one, love school. Some kids seem to hate it because they don't understand what the teachers are teaching them. Some kids that I go to school with like it for the wrong reasons, such as hanging out with friends or using it as an excuse to catch up on their sleep. Although, school is very important. Kids (not all) treat it with little to no respect. I feel that if they would bump up the education and make it more understandable for the society, then more kids would like to attend. Finally, I believe that some children drop out of school because of learning disabilities, which they can't help.

I hate school. Mainly because school can get tedious after a while. Doing the same thing day after day. And unfortunately the classes are boring and too easy so it's worse and I took advanced classes.

If like myself,a majority hate school for the irrelevance of it all.Once reading,writing and basic math are in the bag the rest of it is pointless filler.In my adult life never has needing to know the 3 types of rock or who signed a piece of paper in the 1700's ever been a concern nor ever will it be. Correct any grammatical errors or spelling mishaps as you will. :)
