Hey y'all. It's Reese. As you can tell, I haven't been online for a long time. Let me explain... 1. So a while back, I got grounded. Ok but technically I was never ungrounded. So any time I was/am on scratch, I am literally disobeying the rules. 2. My parents actually banned me from Scratch. Yes it's true. It was when my old account got blocked. They said I spent too much time here anyways and I needed to stop being on there because it's turning into social media. I unfortunetly disobeyed AGAIN and made another account a few months later just to get soaked back in again. 3. My time off has been better for me and my family. I have been a better person to be around with this time that I can spend with my family that I know I will regret not having in the future. You are only a kid so long. Being 14 now and going into high school, I realize that time is running out quickly. So what is going to happen? Well... I think I might leave. Yeah. I am not getting any joy from opening up this app anymore. The only thing that was making this decision hard is that I have amazing friends here. But here's the thing. I will make an e-d-u p-a-d for y'all. I can chat when I remember to get on and that would help from opening Scratch. I also will come on every once in a while and say hi or something or do an art dump. I am keeping everything I own. Things will only be sold or given away if I have a sale or clearout sale. I will not be having one just because I am leaving. As of right now, I own everything still. I repeat: I WILL NOT BE GIVING UP ANYTHING I OWN! I want to "keep" these for sentimental purposes and in the case I do updates. Please make sure everyone is aware before they try to take anything. Nothing is being taken away. Anymore questions will be answered below. I love y'all so so much for a great 2 years. Good bye... - Reese <3
Horse in thumb: @coquette-horse Hey. It's me. Are you thinking about leaving? Do you think it will be easier to do? Less stress? I am here to tell you that you need to cherish your childhood while you have it. Don't let social media and electronics drown you. Go outside! Read a book! Play with your siblings! You have so much freedom now. Why waste it on an app that's turning toxic right before your eyes? Take it from me: the old Scratch was a much more enjoyable community. There is no reason to stay now. Go. No one can hold you back no matter how hard they beg. This is your choice and I can guarantee it's the right one. Enjoy being a kid. - Resse <3
