increasingly i'm beginnin to feel that i should've been a disruptive child/teen who didnt do much at school and i shud encourage other kids to do the same

The other night i went to my nieces prize giving ceremony - she got 4 A's in her a-levels and was given a prize. £10 voucher

yet she was telling me some of the other awards that were up that night such as joe bloggs for continuous progress went to ppl who failed exams and instead got £50 and a trophy. surely this cant be right.

more and more u read of disruptive kids getting xbox 360's and psp's and those that are wellbehaved in school get nothing...

whats going wrong?
