Industry vs inferiority: During my elementary school years, I had a hard time taking tests and doing homework. I would always get low grades that I would refrain from telling my parents. When the teacher asked me to get my test signed I would fake the signature because I did not want my parents to find out. Also I hated when my mother would go to parent teachers conference because, I knew that the teachers would never had anything good to say about me. I felt like I was not measuring up to standards. I also felt a lack of self-worth because I thought that I was considered stupid and not smart enough. I felt very inferior. My teachers did nothing to help me with my struggles. They just accused me of failing because they believed I was not smart
