there is nothing wrong with dropping out of school! if you do want to go to college, you don't have to go to high school and grade school,parents tell you that to trying to get you to go, but you don't have to!! it's not a law, and you do not need to attend high school to attend college. I never sat a test in my life, never been "educated", I am not homeschooled, I am unschooled! if you have any questions feel free to ask me, but I'm just here to say that school is one option out of hundreds!! dropping out is not bad, and those who do drop out,are not lazy,unmotivated, or uneducated!!
dropping out of school is not "a problem" it's an answer!
everyone has their own way of doing things, school works for some people, and for some people it doesn't, but if it doesn't work for you, you are not a waste of a human being!! you can be just as successful in school as out, you can follow your dreams more easily if you are not tied down every day learning about things you may not necessarily need, so it is up to you,and no one else!! I'm glad you worked out something that works for you, but it might not work for everyone, and that doesn't make them less valuable in any way!!
