A lost cause
A lost case in the system

Brush my teeth when they tell me to
Do your school work
Don't take that to this room
Clean your room, it must be spotless

Hold it in
Don't be like the others who go on and on about their problems until the rest of the room is sighing in their chairs
Don't play the victim
Make better choices
