The Euphoria craze is everywhere and if you haven’t watched an episode of this HBO award-winning show, chances are you’ve been on the moon. Produced by Drake, Euphoria is to Gen Z what Skins once was to millennials, proving that high school drama, especially a good one, is time-defying.

Speaking of teen drama, a Twitter user with the handle @WrittenbyHanna has shared a viral thread on the platform. She asked people “What’s the high school scandal y’all would’ve turned into a school play?” and it really hit a soft spot for many.

So drawing from their own experiences, people shared some of the craziest memories they have from their high school. And that’s some rad entertainment you wouldn’t expect from people like me and you. Turns out truth is stranger than fiction!

Karma... (For the girls). On the other hand, they might have similar characteristics (hence the feud) which also might lead to being besties. (Yeah, I'm trying here :)

Perfect place to film a zombie movie, hope you school has an art department.

“As children grow up, they slowly start the process of separation from the protection of their parents,” Susan Petang, a certified stress management and life coach from The Quiet Zone Coaching, told Bored Panda in a previous interview about the challenges of adolescence.

"It starts with the 'Terrible Twos.' Toddlers begin to recognize that they are an individual separate from their caregivers, and start experimenting and exploring. As they grow, there are other times when they move further from the protection of the family 'nest.' It's totally normal, and necessary for them to learn how to function independently,” she explained.

“There's a fine line between letting our kids learn from their own mistakes and keeping them safe, though,” Susan said and added that while a teen is learning to interact socially, their moodiness can be hard to take. It’s how a lot of the tension between teens and their parents originates, she argued.

at least she came back to school. In our country a lot of these cases end up losing their education as well.

The christian school I went to would expel a girl for getting pregnant but let the guy who got her pregnant stay in school. Hypocrites.

I was sent to a bible/Christian camp for 2 back to back weeks. I never wanted to go there again. What is up with Christian boys? I thought the kids in my school were bad bullies. Holy s**t. All I had to do at camp was be there and they just mocked and teased me, made misogynistic comments, including the male counsellors. Oh, but the girl in my cabin was stopped from meditating over some wild belief the our counsellor had it was a way to read people's minds. pfft.

Something like this happened in my Catholic school. My friend was expelled for being pregnant. A year later the priest who came in once a week to give us our religion class got together with another pupil's mother and was STILL allowed to come into our school to give religion classes. Welcome to Catholic Ireland.

REAL Christians (or those of ANY religion) are not perfect; should look first in the mirror and then practise tolerance and acceptance of those who are different and whose differences neither harm nor affect anyone.

An Unpopular Opinion.

Pervert's aren't Christian, they'll all go to Hell, no matter how many times they claim to be Christian

A typical feature of religion, everybody can earn God's forgiveness except those people(exceptions can be made of course if they donate enough).

As a Christian myself, I would have beaten them until blood ran from their body. Whether you agree with or support the other two things or not, they’re nothing compared to being a disgusting pervert.

I'm absolutely humiliated by people who say they're Christian but then act like that.

Kinda like my (non strict) Catholic 8th grade teacher. It took me years to work out he was actually perving on me leading to tears once. Same man?

The life coach explained that teenagers have a lot of physical and emotional issues all going on at the same time that are confusing and hard to manage. “There are a few reasons for this: There are the emotional challenges of dealing with hormones. They don't have the social skills yet to communicate what they're feeling. Teens don't have the world experience to know and understand their complex emotions. Let's add the fact that their brains aren't yet fully developed (and won't be until their late 20s),” Susan explained and added “It's a recipe for rollercoaster emotions.”

It’s not easy to deal with any teenager, but special hardship goes to parents whose kids are rebelling against them. “The best advice I can give parents is to listen to their teens, and have compassion for what they're experiencing. Remember what it was like when you were that age!

Start with reflective listening. 'It sounds like you're upset,' 'It feels like you think my decision is unfair,' or, 'It looks like you didn't understand what I meant.'”Susan reminds parents that it’s very important for them to stay calm and have a solution-oriented attitude; solve the problem and don't cast blame.

This is bullying to the extreme. How could this get that far to nearly get that poor kid expelled, especially when it was a teachers list?

“It's important that teens get some freedom to make mistakes and learn how to navigate the world, so allow them to have control over decisions that aren't critical. Pick your battles—insist on compliance when their safety is at stake. (How they dress, for example, isn't as important as avoiding drugs and alcohol),” she explained.

When rebelling teens make a mistake or act out, Susan's advice is to use this XYZ statement: “When you do X, I feel Y, and I'd like Z. Here's an example: 'When you stay out past your curfew without calling, I worry about your safety. I'd like you to let me know when you'll be late.' Make sure to compromise. For example, when my 14-year-old daughter wanted to go to a concert in NYC with her friends, I would only allow it if I knew how she was getting there, how she was getting home, who would be there with them (an adult!), and that she would check in with me every hour via text,” the life coach concluded.

They probably felt they had to in order to protect themselves. I find this sad.

1. What age were they? 2. What does AP stand for? 3. Drinking, what age? If these are college kids, who cares? If they are school kids, different story. What concerns me with the ambiguity is it says "Scholarships" which here implies university kids.

It wasn't an affair unless one or both were married or in a committed relationship to someone else at the time. All I see is 2 adult teachers dated, fell in love and married. When did that become scandalous?

Abortion at 6 months pregnant? This is probably illegal or for some medical reason.
