We don't. The amount of energy required to accelerate a mass is proportional to gamma, as the relativistic mass increases.

This is a nonsensical statement.

Keep reading, and stay away from youtube. Einstein's book is readily available. I'll buy it for you if you DM me and you cannot afford it.

Not twelve days, but slightly longer than six. But yes, time travel into the future; however we are already doing that at the rate of one second per second. The faster you go, the more that rate increases. Moving to the ISS in three days does not get you anywhere near the speed of light, so this effect is negligible and I'd argue that general relativity time dilation would be a greater effect.

Gamma is 1/sqrt(1-(v^2 /c^2 )) so unless you are travelling near the speed of light, special relativity is extremely minor. If your velocity was great enough for gamma to equal 2, you would experience half the time as a stationary observer would. It's all weird stuff.

I'm a teacher. Do your homework. It's important for your learning.

Also, please report your physical abuse to your teachers/admin. You should never be subjected to that. It doesn't help at all, and preventing you from going out with your friends is punishment enough. Your parents responding to words with violence is completely unnaceptable.
