irresponsibility
Irresponsibility, it comes in many ways. It hurts people and it stops people from doing what they want and deserve to do. Many people have it. Adults sometimes have it, children usually have it, and the majority of teenagers have it too. Many people are irresponsible, and most of the time they don't even know it. Sometimes people aren't irresponsible but, are thought of as irresponsible. I have been called irresponsible a number of times, mostly by parents and some times by teachers. I don't believe that I am irresponsible I believe I am just unlucky. I usually get my homework in on time, and when I don't I usually have a good reason. I do my chores on a regular basis, and I clean up after my self at home. In my eyes I am a very responsible person, or at least compared to other teenagers. One thing I have been called irresponsible for is not doing my homework. I have time, yes, I am smart enough to do the homework, yes, but there is one reason I cant do some of the homework. Im not like most people, I don't have parents that spoil me, I don't have a laptop, a tv in my room, or even a phone with a camera. In fact I am missing one very important thing when it comes to doing well in this school, I have no computer at home. I believe it is irresponsible for teachers to get the thought that every student has one at home. Because of my lack at home and the fact that I need to ride the bus I am required to do my homework during late start and lunch. I have this blog, two papers on two different books, a two page essay on another country, and I have to look up things on blackboard as homework and some of it is overdue because lunch just isn't long enough for me to complete the work on time. Before the computer broke at my house I had good grades, almost straight A's. But now, because this school relies on computers so much I have dropped just about every grade possible. I didn't think it was irresponsible when I had a computer, but now that I don't and I'm being called irresponsible for not having one, I realize that it is irresponsible for teachers to force us to rely on computers so much. I feel very sorry for other people that dont have a computer, because this school relies on them so much that they must stay after school just about every day to do their work, I know if I didn't ride the bus I would. The worst part is that I don't really have a choice but to loose my grades all because of a few different teachers' irresponsibility.
