Im Independent at 17. I dont have the cash to buy nice clothes either, but i try everyday and I am friendly to everyone - thats what gets you through life. Teachers appreciate the work you put in, not the clothes or the wealth you have.

Regrettably this is not always true. I know most teachers try to be even handed but they are only human and, like all humans, some of them are idiots. I have seen teachers not only judge their students but also be downright rude and obnoxious to those they decide are less worthy.



Try and let it go. I know it is difficult, especially when we are feeling self conscious, but allowing them to get under your skin only serves to satisfy and encourage them to continue. Show them that are above them and their ignorance and it will make them feel insignificant. If they mess with your grades as retribution, file a complaint.
