I was homeschooled previously with a small group of other children and we fart in class all the time.

Now I’m in public school for high school and no one is farting. I was very sheltered and public school is like a whole new world for me, so I don’t know what the norms are. I’ve been holding it in but my stomach hurts and it leaks out anyway.

I don’t understand how there are so many more people in high school and yet zero farts…

    A question no one has asked yet: how often are you farting and how smelly are we talking? Because there may be a diet change worth considering if you’re putting around like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

        You may want to talk to your doctor. That frequency is not a common issue and there may be something going on with your diet or stomach. It’s not uncommon for people to go far longer than 1 highschool class without farting and most farts don’t smell. If all your farts smell that likely means somethings wrong with your diet or stomach.

        You’re trolling right?

        I genuinely thought this was a real post at first.

        But the responses you’re having are just a little too cookie cutter…

        Let’s say you are a real person and are having this problem. First, congrats on making it to a setting that exposes you to a large number of peers from all kinds of socioeconomic backgrounds.

        No matter how much money I have in my life, I think I will insist on sending my kids to public school. That’s what I did for all my life and I turned out fine. Just being exposed to everyone else will really help in maturing and having broad life experiences.
