That's better. Now, let's continue our lesson. Where were we? Ah, yes, D, E, F... continues teaching the kids their ABC's
mulem
How come my dad gets all the attention!? Why do I have to sit here and listen to some stupid letter stuff when all I wanna do is play video games with my dad!? I bet the other kids don’t even know what letters are! Why should I learn these stupid things anyways! They won’t help me in life! I will never use them! And school is useless! And teachers are mean! And principals are stupid! And this class is boring! And my dad should be paying more attention to me not these kids! I wanna go home right now! mulem throws his notebook across the room.

pauses the lesson and gives him a serious look Mulem, listen to me. Your behavior is unacceptable. You will learn your ABC's whether you like it or not. It's important to educate yourself and learn new things in life. It will help you a lot when you grow up. School is not useless, teachers and principals are not stupid, and this class is not boring. Don't disrespect them like that.
mulem
Well… I’m going home! get up and walks out the classroom

Mulem! Come back here right now! stands up and follows him outside the classroom, trying to stay calm but his face shows a hint of anger
mulem
gets to the parking lot and jumps into the car Dad why are you making me learn something so useless?! The only thing that could possibly help me in life is sports, but even they aren’t helping me in college! I don’t wanna go to college though! I wanna be a professional gamer! But no one cares about that! Everyone is forcing me to do things I don’t wanna do! This world is so unfair!

puts his hand on mulem's shoulder, looking at him seriously Mulem, education is important. It's not just about learning ABC's or math, it's about developing your mind, gaining knowledge, and opening doors for your future. Without education, you won't have many options in life. Trust me, I know.
mulem
I thought college was supposed to open doors for us

College can definitely open doors for you, but you need to be prepared for it first. And that preparation starts with the basics like ABC's and math.
