@@compassrose1466 google says no child left behind was passed early 2002, chris claims to have graduated in 2000 so assuming he know what year he graduated he would have just missed out on that act. the teachers probably just felt like it would upset chris to fail him so just passed him and moved on

As someone who is semi devoted to Chris Chan lore, I always wondered why he viewed HS as one of the best time of his life - especially when considering that his type of behavior most likely got him bullied. However, this video made it clear that Chris had a large number of enablers in HS, which is most likely why he views it as the best time of his life.

[@danthonygregory4157]

Based on how you're describing it, Chris peaked in school and fell off from there. He didn't even peaked in HS; he peaked even earlier the moment he made it on the news.

[@compassrose1466]

Sadly, he still had enablers. I don’t agree with all the things he’s done, but I will say I do think what eventually led him to some worse things were people guiding him there. As someone who is on the spectrum - it’s a spectrum for a reason not everyone will be the same - when someone I think who I can trust asks me to do something or praises me in something it can become hard to separate those who are good and bad. Or at least that’s how it was BEFORE I got help and could better it. You can work on these things but sadly Chris never will becuase the trolls are enabling him to continue his life. Even if he gets helped Chris is a terrible person who has done some screwed up things so I dont believe he should be forgiven..

[@captainweekend5276]

His gal pals likely protected him from the worst of the bullying, honestly the fact that unbeknown to Chris his father was literally paying girls to hang out with him, Chris likely viewed himself as having a level of cache with the opposite sex that he suddenly lost post high school.

[@Irene-qk6qm]

I am a Spanish native speaker with a degree in Spanish Language and Literature, and have been working as a Spanish teacher for more than ten years. Yet I can't, for the life of me, figure out Chris Chan's "old Spanish expression". It begins by "tú necesitas" (you need), then there's complete gibberish, then ends by "para ganar felicidad por vida" ("to win happiness for life", which is not natural Spanish at all - likely a word by word translation from English). Guess I'll never know what I need to win happiness for life.

Not really related to “Uhcrepsa etah Uhcinos evol,” but it’s very much arrogant of Chris to consider himself fluent in Spanish after only taking two years of it as a foreign language elective in high school.

[@billyboberto]

Side-note: I have TA'd for a number of special education classes in middle school and high school when I was in grad studies at uni, more often than not, we encourage special needs students to grade each other to help build communication skills. Sometimes the students give each other perfect scores cause they may not understand what we're asking them to do or get intimidated by the student they're grading for - I feel that Chris being much less special needs than other students I've worked with was clearly very intimidating compared to other special needs students (hence why some works he did had perfect scores and others a blatant fail)

[@jampine8268]

Also it's notable that Chris is a complete asshole, and probably was in school. Notably in some if his school work that was dug out of a dumpster, he often refers to the other students as "Slow in the minds", I have no doubts he probably said something similar to their faces. If the other students did grade his work, they probably just gave good marks to not deal with him having a meltdown and having a grudge against them.

[@onettaviator5396]

I grew up in those classes until I was 13, and I have an alternative theory? I think that it could have actually been kids who had even LOWER support needs than he does grading his stuff like this. Either out of pity or because they didn't want to deal with his/the teacher's complaining afterward. I did homework for kids who kept failing the same assignment over and over a FEW times solely because I got tired of constantly hearing about it.

Hi, I am a foreign language teacher, when faced with special ed students like chris were usually have to adapt the best we can, and back the content at home or in extracurriculars. If the lesson and overall progress of the student is not working, we usually discuss it with the parents, sorting those many options like more adapted schools or psychological therapy to complement the student. However if the parents are uncooperative and refuse any help we offer, aka Barb and Bobs neglectful behavior, we have to do something that we’re not proud about which is give the student at least a passing grade, because if we held them back we would have them stuck for the rest of our lives. No teacher wants this but unfortunately we lack the funding and adequate resources to deal with this issues long term. That’s why special ed schools exist.

as an autistic person, high school was actual hell on earth. I was bullied relentlessly and I did poorly in a lot of classes. I was glad to graduate in 2020 because I didn't have a graduation because of the pandemic. I understand that Chris liked high school because of the enablers but fuck, school in general as an autistic person is awful. EDIT: when I say I was bullied relentlessly, I'm referring to the girls who would try to be my "friend". The people who would come up to me with their friends, start asking a ton of questions like "what are you doing? awww you like to drawwwww awwwww" and shit like that then if I ignored them they'd be like "why dont you like us we're just trying to be your friend!!!" and because of it, I couldn't tell a teacher. If I didn't ignore them and tried to say something like please leave me alone if you're gonna be like that, they'd turn around and laugh with their friends like I'm some inside joke. Chris probably went through this too but literally couldn't tell

[@matthewczech2631]

High school just isn’t a good place to be different from the norm in any way. I went to a very woke high school (yeah that word absolutely is cringe but I can’t think of a better one) and it’s like a more conservative high school in the sense that you can’t be different from the norm, the norm is just different. The issue in this case was that you weren’t supposed to say anything offensive, but I don’t decide what’s offensive. Everyone else does and I can’t read their minds.

As someone who is currently in highschool. While I'm not autistic (or at least i think i'm not) nor did i constantly get bad grades, i'm mostly still being mocked still by most of my "friends".

Man, I see a lot of people dunking on the teachers but honestly, can you imagine someone like CWC in your class? He was probably an annoying and constantly bappling nightmare, and I bet no one wanted to deal with him more than absolutely needed. It's already hard enough being a public school teacher, imagine with someone like him in your class. I bet there was some sort of understanding amongst the faculty to just give him nice grades and make him finish ASAP so they would not need to deal with him or his parents anymore. On a sidenote, although sad and very bad in the long run, I can kinda understand Bob's reasoning for paying people to be Chris' friends. Lack of socialization can be awful even to mentally healthy people, imagine to an absolutely socially inept autistic kid. I think he genuinely thought he could make his son happy and make his puberty years better for his following future, easing a bit his feeling of loneliness and social inadequacy. We see the end results now, but It's not that absurd to umderstand from an elderly father of a very autistic kid on Virginia. But It's that saying: hell is full of great intentions

[@Lionstar16]

Agreed - while I'm sure the special needs help available during Chris' childhood/teenage years wasn't as developed as it is today, the fact that Bob and Barbara refused to acknowledge their son desperately needed it to function in society is appalling. Then again, Bob and Barbara were failures as parents to their children from previous relationships (and those children seem to have become functionable members of society) so no surprise they failed Chris so miserably

[@fergusmurray1828]

What’s so sad about the gal pals being paid by Bob situation is that it potentially prevented Chris from actually finding people Chris fitted in (likely other neurodivergent students). It wouldn’t have fixed everything (not by a long shot), but maybe having friends Chris had stuff in common with could’ve helped a lot in some areas.

The damage was already done in his childhood and the school knew it. It was too late for him by that point, no amount of extra resources would fix him. They did give him a typical high school experience, complete with "friends" and walking on stage to get his diploma, which probably helped him relate to other adults later on in life. This was probably the only part of his life that resembled normalcy, and it's actually pretty wholesome to see him in pictures with the basketball team and other classmates.
