threat

Read a random definition: feigned action

A quick definition of threat:

A threat is when someone tells another person that they will hurt them or their things. This can make the person feel scared and not able to do what they want to do. Sometimes, a threat can also be something that might cause harm, like a dangerous storm or a sickness. When a species of animal is in danger of disappearing, it is called a threatened species.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A communicated intent to harm or cause loss to another person or their property, which may limit their ability to act freely or with consent.

Example: A person threatening to harm someone else if they do not give them money is an example of a threat.

Threats can also be made to cause fear or panic, such as a bomb threat that causes a building to be evacuated. In some cases, a person or thing can be seen as a threat if they have the potential to cause harm, even if no specific threat has been made.

Example: A wild animal that has been known to attack humans can be seen as a threat to people who live in the area.

Threats can be serious and have legal consequences, such as charges of extortion or terrorism. It is important to take threats seriously and report them to the appropriate authorities.

that's insane
I think it's ridiculous sometimes how schools want to act like we're adults but then won't treat us like them sometimes.
It's like you either want to let us all sit at the adult table or just leave as at the kiddy table.
