- High School Drop Out? What Happens In Your Life
Dropping out of high school is a significant event that impacts people for along time. Not having your high school education completed does not mean you will not be successful. There are examples of people that live wonderful lives without finishing high school. However, for the vast majority of people not having a high school diploma will negatively hold them back psychologically and financially. If you don’t have your GED, HISET or TASC you should make this a priority and invest in yourself to pass - with the right teacher and material you can pass a lot faster than you think.

Bro I’m so stressed I’m crying rn I don’t think I can do it. I don’t wanna drop out but I’m scared and my parents are threatening to kick me out, but I’m mentally and physically drained I can’t do it anymore.
Depression, anxiety, and other mental illnesses kill your ability to perform in school for alot of people. Yet we think treating those people like they're stupid is helping them any
Yes, I got off a call with my compass guider not long ago and I feel like her giving me a new plan to work with for schooling since I'm struggling, I had told her how school is overwhelming for me and I just can't bring myself to bother doing the work anymore. She was like "Yes, that's because you're not following the plans that I'm giving you!" as if I'm not already trying.
@@cl0udw4lk3r9 I completely understand. Even if things are going well people don't see that unless you have all As and Bs. I passed all my classes except for English and my parents are forcing me to quit my job. Now that they're forcing me to quit the one thing that's helped me (because I'm a workaholic) I'm just going to give up again and let my grades drop because I don't care anymore. I hate when authority acts like they know everything and acts like they know your own feelings and what's going on with you 🤦🏼♂️ I hope shit gets better for you too
@@Mega-P71 Same here. I do hope that your work situation gets better.
Exactly the schooling system does not take into account that many people especially teenagers struggle with mental health issues which makes it so difficult to want to do anything. Schools really only made for the people who are extroverted, mentally healthy, good support system at home, and people who can easily memorize stuff.
@Flexsor Same bro. This is my last year but just a few months ago I went to a crisis center because I was about to end it. Getting help doesn't really do anything and all they do is put you on meds and send you back in.
I'm doing better despite the suicidal shit. If I graduate this year then I'm on the path for success because I'm pretty smart and work a lot. I just hate the world and how the people around me are enough to throw it all away at times. I'm about to cut everyone from my life when I graduate and start a new life elsewhere.
I should drop out, i literary go to school and come home and still don't know anything
Chris Tiger Harris Thats what im sayin, school isnt an education, its a fckin bulimia
You're right. Today I got in trouble for skipping some classes and I'm thinking about dropping out.
Wanna know the true reason? It is probably because you aren't practicing what you learn at school, thats like going to college for basketball but never actually doing any of the drills.
@@yuh6271 lol at the wondering why you aren't learning anything when you are skipping class
FAXTS
Got kick out. Was homeless. Had to work . Got 2 jobs. Now one more test. Keep grinding bro your life can change in one year.
how did you get your job as a dropout i dropped out at 2008 . almost 30 i am 28 i need to get a job my parents are starting to hate me and starting to yell at me because i am still lving with them. i need some help i can't go back to my school to get ged that cost money to do . i am broke bumb living with my parents.
@@RoninStormTopicTalks hey man that sucks to hear. What you can do is to apply to general labour agencies, they usually hire anyone (at least in Newzealand). Normally every minimum wage job should work aswell. If you apply in person you probably can get jobs as a waiter also. There are a lot of things to do, but you need to go out try and don't give up even when rejected 100 times. You will be much happier when you have something to do.
You have strong character Eobard Thawne...please once you are successful (you will be), do some public speaking.
@@RoninStormTopicTalks Ya thats the problem...you need to get ANY job (and yes working at mcdonalds is fine), you need to save EVERY cent and get a trade skill (we will always need electricians, plumbers, welders, large machine operators, etc.). From the income from that job, you can make signficiant decisions on your education. But it all starts with a job at McDonalds' and I'm willing to bet that that is your hang up. You are either refusing to get a job like that, or refusing to change your habits. THAT is the toughest part.
@@RoninStormTopicTalks if ur parents get mad because u have no job they dont love u
School don't teach life tho
Yeah, well you cant experience life without school sooo.
Lil Arod Seriously, school taught me how to write, read and count. That's cool, useful asf in life, then you start getting formulas and i fr feel like thats the worst time use ever, i wanna write some songs, edit videos, but school fckin drowns me. But ill stay strong, gonna graduate and at the end of the day im gonna say FUCK SCHOOL! And if i dont graduate? Shit happens, im not gonna commit suicide or stress about it lol. 2020 decade needs to be the awaking one, when you start being woke, start to meditate, selfcare, you really find your real happiness when you are actually happy with yourself. None of that Matrix shit actually matters, they just want to programme us.
@@relaxationandblossom I feel u bro🤟🏼
Yes they do, school teaches you almost everything about life. Taught how to handle bullying, taught how to figure out which is more worth the price, which will make you more money in the long run, teaches you how to be athletic and how to play sports, tell me one thing it doesn't help you in life with?
@@sheng8806
It taught me I'm a failure and I don't matter, my grades do, but I don't for the most part 😂
I have always wished to fulfill my dreams and wanted to leave my mark on this Earth when I die, but now I feel horrible, stressed, my parents scold me whenever I get a bad grade, exams and tests are clustered together, day after day, I feel like I'm drowning in homework, I just want a break, I feel like I'm choking, I feel like a bird who isn't allowed to fly, but stay in a cage. I don't know why I still get up every morning, I thought about ending my life a lot. And the fact I have dyscalculia doesn't make things better, my parents seem to prefer and like my siblings more than me, middle school was horrible, teachers didn't like me and think I couldn't do anything and never gave me a chance to prove them wrong, my elementary school teacher hated me and tried everything to drag me down, my kindergarten teachers hated me and said I did things I didn't do so I would get scolded, I was in primary school and had to repeat it because the medication the doctors gave me because I had Elepsy made me not understand much of what was happening, I feel worthless and life barely showed me happy sides so far, luck is limited. My best isn't good enough. I still try to get my hopes up, that's why I'm here, I want to know if I still have a chance to live, if I deserve to have a life even if I fail high school. My parents made me believe I'm a disappointment and I don't want to be a burden to society because I failed, I don't want to let my broken dreams go, I still want to dream and aim high, I want to try, I want to live, regardless of how many people turn me down because I failed. I have always heard I can learn form mistakes, Let me learn from this, give me a second chance, notice I'm there too..
Sorry for randomly venting now- pretending things are okay isn't easy.
I wanted to graduate but it's so hard going to school everyday being so depress and having no friends because I have social anexity. I dropped out and idk why this bad stuff happened to me and I really dont deserve it. I went to school like this for years, living in fear everytime I woke up, because I knew the hardship I was gonna have to go thru. I hope i have a good future and i hope any other dropout like myself do as well.
I feel the same im up rn 2 hours before school i think about how painfull it will be going every morning and i beg my mom to not go it makes me so sad , im happy that im not alone ....i have no friends either i just sit there alll day i would hope u will respond and tell me how your life is going now thx
@@nopleasestop8390 sorry for the late respond brother. I'm sorry to hear you having a rough time in school. For me it got to point where I stop caring about not having friends. I just wanted to go to school and not live in fear everyday of my life. but it's my anxiety that's really fucks me up. My father own a few business so are very lucky that I have something to go on. If you leave school, your gonna be in a tough spot, that's the hard truth. You have to look out for yourself because no one else will. What grade are u in if you dont mind me asking?
Same here
joe foe Same I’m suppose to be in 12th grade but I dropped out in 11th due to same reason my grades where terrible and getting terrible because I was being bullied so much since 6th grade and never could focus at school it’s such bull sh!t :(
same thing cant get job and cant study because of bullying
I’m just trying to explain to my parents, that I will pass but if I don’t just because I don’t get my diploma doesn’t mean I will become a thief or drug addict. 🤦🏽♂️
lmao my mom
Uhh... I feel very lost in life and I haven’t been going to school often. I’m in my senior year and currently failing. I literally have to pass all me classes to be able to graduate. I feel bad for my family, I feel that they are disappointed. I’m just not motivated or excited for school anymore😔 a little scared of the future though.
Randy Reyes same but I’m a freshman😐
@@sg8169 same also a freshie
Randy Reyes literally me rn
Dang but you guys are freshman bruh you guys got more years ahead of you to figure out what you want in life for me though I’m a senior and I turned 19 on the 29th of November I feel like I should’ve had things figured out by now but the only thing I’m doing it working at a 9.50 hour paying job. I’m only working there because it’s right by my school I got another plan after school working at a job with my brother that he says it’s really easy and maybe UPS with my friends both jobs pay 14 and hour and I’m tryna move fast after school my mom says I should just dropout since I’m only showing up once a week but I sort of don’t want to give up on high school yet. Thanks for reading if you did good luck on life❤️
Randy Reyes i’m a senior too. i’ve been in and out of different homes and schools. school is such a distraction and so stressful. i believe at this point it’s waste of my time. i’m failing classes even tho i’m trying and i need to pass these classes to graduate. i’m behind. the thing is i don’t value money and things that’ll only make me happy for a tad bit. i want to cancel everything that makes me unhappy. fuck it, id live homeless if that’s the lifestyle that will help me grow mentally and my independence. i could talk about how the school system is wrong and how i don’t need it for what i want to succeed in life.
im a sophomore and im seriously struggling with most subjects. i dont want to drop out but its on my mind often. i wanna pass and i wanna be successful, but im just so dumb and dont understand most subjects. im watching these things to hopefully scare me out of thinking about dropping out
edit: im a senior now and still horribly behind and my moms gonna kick me out if i dont get my diploma. uh oh.
Just keep grinding brother, you're not dumb, you're just not the academic type and that's fine, I'm not either and i'm now a freshman in college. you'll be grateful that you finished, it's only 2 years after this one, you'll make it bro, i promise you :)
I’m also a sophomore and I hate academics, I thought of dropping out but I don’t want to because I want to go in the military. And I need a diploma for that. I’d say just do your best and fight through, your not a failure, I got 3 F’s right now but I know what I want to do. You got this man ;)
macarohan Ify u bro on the same page but my last shot I get is doing credit recovery school rn ✊🏼l believe in u g ..
Fuck school smarts dawg you just need to learn how to read and write and simple math don’t let anyone think your dumb cause you can’t complete a dumb algorithmic equation
I was the same as you brother I'm 19 now dropped out 2 years ago and well it's rough man specially finding a job I hope i get my ged soon
Formal education will make you a living, Self Education will make you a fortune.
This is not 100% true do not listen to these people who are telling you to drop out, do what is best for you and your family ! ! !
@@sheng8806 Dude, i have like one schoolarship thus I can get into the college for free bassicaly, im going to take two different colleges ( 2 years and 6 years ) , im planning to drop out next year, im 10th grader btw, should i do it? and tell me the negative side about it
@@naraedhawigar12 Okay so here is the problem, just because you have a bachelors degree or whatever in whatever you are going to take, doesn't mean a company will hire you, and those chances are lowered if you don't even have a highschool diploma, now lets look at if you aren't able to get a job as the career you want, and maybe you need some money just to sustain yourself while you wait for a callback which could take weeks or months or never even happen. Then what will you do? You may not even be able to get part time jobs because a highschool diploma proves that you know your basic core subjects. And worst of all, what if you really just don't enjoy what you are doing and maybe want to become a Chef? Well turns most of the time they require a high school diploma. I certainly suggest you do not drop out unless you need to. Make sure to reply to me if you need any more suggestions
@@sheng8806 Ah thanks man for telling me! i appreciate that
@@naraedhawigar12 Yeah no problem, its just many people nowadays don't understand how badly not getting a highschool diploma can affect your life
I’m 33 without a diploma or ged and it makes life so much harder. I have managed to buy a house at 28 and do amazing things but every job has been intense labor and abusive on my body.
Wow, I'm glad you managed to buy a house. That's impressive. You clearly worked hard. Also it seems like in this world if you don't get education your stuck doing horrible labor or stuck dealing with the rudest nastiest people in retail and customer service jobs.
I dropped out and got my GED the second I did. Im all good
Jacqueline Maij hows life been
Thinking of dropping out and GED right after aswell not sure..
Hi Love . Could you please send me the link to your online school? Please
I'm thinking about dropping out but I don't want to fail and be on the streets. I want a job
Can you tell us what program you used please ?
I was pulled out of high scool as a sophomore because I was almost 18. I Flunked 2 years and ever since it’s been difficult because I couldn’t get a ged. I wish I could go back in time and correct my mistakes. :(
Same bro
U dumb af
Corey you wild bruh 😂😂
Not too late, you're still at your best years, if High School's not a choice, go straight to the workforce, you have a couple of choices , go to trade school for 6-12 months and start gaining a starter pay of $60,000 at 19, community college, get an associates after 2 years with classes that work with your schedule in a work study program and more freedom with your time at a cheaper cost and possibly do your last 2 years in University and get your bachelor's degree at half the debt. Also, the military's a career option, the Air Force has a well known reputation.
@@Cee4304 Go fuck off, that was extremely unnecessary
With this corona thing going on my grades are waaaaaay low... Idk if I'll pass

@FlightSimaster yesssss fuck 🇨🇳
@sufea same I also used to get good grades but now this shit just blew me away
I'm currently feeling very stressed out at the moment. I'm a sophomore in high school and I honestly don't know what the hell is going on in my classes. I've fallen so behind recently. I thought online school would benefit me, but I'm realizing that online school just takes a lot of self discipline and self motivation. Which I have none of when it comes to school. I distract myself with my own thoughts, and that's probably my main downfall. The whole time I've been in school, I've been behind. I could never pay attention in class and now that's come back to bite me in my ass. I'm feeling uncertain of my future, I can motivate myself to a lot productive things, but I just struggle trying to motivate myself to academically succeed.
I feel man i feel
I’m literally your same position I’m 15
KillerJudeVlogs same, I have just been kicked out of online schooling recently. I’m currently failing every class in every quarter and I just feel very confused. I’m going to have to go back to public school, but I’ll have to go to another school instead of the one I was previously in and I’m really nervous. And I’ll definitely have to do summer school since I’m failing. and I have to go.

Mental health is so important!!!! It’s so hard to get through it when your mental health is poor, people will just overlook it. If you don’t get it done, you’re considered unintelligent, which is definitely not true for a lot of people. There’s multiple reasons why someone wouldn’t finish highschool, and bad mental health is the main thing ‼️
You say better things then any teacher of mine 😂
@@brezybrian942 Lol thank you. I almost dropped out due to depression. People stopped fucking with me, my grandma passed away, I had a bad name and my reputation was thrashed. I’m about to graduate and it took me a month to get all 14 classes complete. All you need is the right people to understand.
Sorry for your loss ya depression fucking sucks glad to hear your gonna graduate
They dont drop out, they actually want to follow their dreams
So I'm guessing 99% of the dreams are sitting on the couch, smoking pot and practicing guitar...badly.

I think high school is a waste of time, as soon as I have the opportunity I’m going to drop out
Foolish
Don’t do it if you think it’s a “waste of time”
As an artist, I went into online school to be able to work on my art more so I could start a business. But all my passion, all my hard work, is forced into little algebra papers that mean NOTHING. Idk I just don’t know what it’s doing for me.
You’re given irrelevant information, HS just opens more open doors for you to be a worker.
This is exactly my situation, I'm also an artist and this is my story after I dropped out- ua-cam.com/video/nQZFgR8MPqY/v-deo.html
it sucks the creativity of you...
its a long story but i went from a very high GPA student to my mom calling me a worthless sack of shit this morning and the school said i wouldnt be allowed to finish the grade, the reason being because i just cant do online school for shit and we have to cuz of covid, so here i am, what a shitty system we have.
Ya I can't do online haven't even joined a day but we gotta prove them wrong 💪
Online school definitely destroyed a lot of kids. Good news in those grades don’t matter as much as you think. Just repeat the year and get it done. You tube has lots of instructions.
I'm also struggling with senior year because of online school. I never seem to get motivated to do my activities partly because I know I won't graduate since we have a lot of unsettled accounts (unpaid tuition fee) in my previous school. Even now I'm just temporarily enrolled in my current school. I'm trying to get the best out of everything I've learned in school and thinking about what I will do after highschool, if I get to graduate.
I dropped out of school today, I finally made the decision to do it. I've dealt with depression and anxiety since I can remember and this school year (junior year) put so much pressure on me, that I even considered killing myself. I don't want anyone to feel bad, I just wanted to ask fellow dropouts what y'all are doing? I actually got accepted to nursing school, which starts in September but until then.. I have no idea what to do..
Da na I’m also a junior I dropped out on October because I also had depression and good luck to both of us in life

as a 19yr old dropout still living with my mom, I would tell u to ride that nursing school wave as far as u possibly can. u have a plan, thats more than what some can say. without a career or even a hobby like that to fall back on, youll be experiencing the worst life has to offer. I beg of u, give yourself that reason to get out of bed in the morning. u will be plagued by the most deep seeded regret a person can feel if u dont
It seems like people are really starting to see that getting your high school diploma just a “why not” thing. GOOD! Highschool should be optional. Atleast 10,11,12th grade at most. 9th grade should be your last year and also the year that makes you either wanna continue school or not. Not mandatory stress and nonsense for no reason...
Hi idk if anyone or you will see this but i’m struggling so much because i’m currently in 10th yet i failed all my classes with Fs last year (9th) and idk what to do i’m so stressed..all of this while my anxiety and depression spikes.

@@Min-lg7dq hey. You know you can get your GED right? And just letting you know trade schools and degree/certificate programs exist. Life isn’t over just because you didn’t finish highschool. Don’t listen to these people who are saying you’ll be a failure for dropping out. Success is what you make of it in your own way and if dropping out means your mental health getting better then do it. Your mental health should always be your top priority. You got this😌👍🏼
@@Min-lg7dq I’m currently in 9th. I’m depressed all the time. I have severe anxiety I struggle with panic attacks. School really isn’t for me... stressing about what grade u have is really not it. There’s wayyyy more important things in life. Dropping out or getting a GED is definitely an option for me.
The only things I consider important in school is for them to teach you how to write, read, do simple math, (add, multiply, divide, subtract) and maybe a few other basics
From there on, you should decide what you want to study or do with your life.
BTW, where is financial education in school??? Ironically, the most important subject they don't teach
I was abused as a child so I was angry as a child so I got kicked outta every school around now I'm paying for it wish I could do it all over again.
It sucks how your parents determine whether you'll be successful or not.
ya but thats NEVER your fault. and its never too late. Find someone who will stand in your corner and go get the ged or whatever you can. Find someone to stay with for free and save up some money. People can get there through sheer motivation. Do not give up. But please please please find someone to talk to about the abuse because they made your life much harder, YOU DIDNT, THEY DID.

@@SexyFace Its called a parent. Most parents will house a kid who's willing to work....what they don't want are deadbeats.
did u just assume theyre in touch with their willing to help parents¿?
For those of you suffering through school, and it is JUST not for you. I will give you a blueprint for success, but it sucks and its even more hard work then school. Ready?
MOST PEOPLE will pay someone else to do a shitty job. The more shitty the job, the more they pay.
ALL PEOPLE need to do the following: Move. Clean. Paint. Shovel snow. Cut lawns. Landscape.
And all customers want 3 things: good response/communication, fast services, quality service., in order.
SO here is the blueprint: Step 1, save $3000. That means working a shit job than do it.
Step 2: get on the internet/facebook, and add everyone in your city and constantly advertise your snow shovelling or lawn or painting business or carpetting cleaning business (research how to do those properly on youtube). Wake up at 7 am, hammer the phones and internet until you go to bed. Do phone calls for 1 hour. Knock on doors for 1 hour. Drop off leaflets two hours...you get your gym time in that way too. (when knocking on doors make eye contact, be clean, be polite, say thank you and sorry to bother you).
Step 3: When you do get a call, rent the equipment with part of the $3000, DO THE JOB WELL, FAST, and get customer happiness. Write up your own review and ask them permission to use their name as a reference on that review. Add it to your new WIX website. Then leave leaflets all around their neighbourhood.
STEP 4: Save all the cash from that, only spend on food, rent and necessities. Your phone is now a business write off. So is your gas, taxis and buses. Save all receipts. Your costs for rentals and equipment is also a write off. Keep an excel spreadsheet of all material costs and all income. Only your net is taxable BUT YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY TAX.
STEP 5: Repeat step 2 and 3 until you save $20, 000. Get a real website with real business cards and a real logo. Now advertise for help. Do 30 interviews to get 1 person who has a work ethic. DO NOT HIRE FRIENDS OR FAMILY. Now teach them how to do it and bring them on jobs to get the job done twice as quickly. Once they know how, send them to customers alone, but make sure they do quality, fast and customer happiness.
STEP 6: Continue until you have 3-4 staff. Now instead of renting equipment, buy some and learn to maintain it. Do this for a while until more money is saved.
STEP 7: Now start a NEW business that I listed above, and follow all the steps above. For moving, rent a van or trailer and hire 2 strong backs. For carpet cleaning, learn how and rent the equipment. A big field right now is health care. You can make $25 or MORE an hour as a sitter for a senior, learn how online.
STEP 8: Continue in the new business until it is as booming as the first. Make one of the 4 people you have in the first business a manager to quality control the other 3, give him/her a raise. Focus on the new business. Make sure of 3 things; quality of service, happiness of customer, and SPEED. Those 3 things will always get you more business.
STEP 9: Continue all steps until you can start a 3rd business. Continue until you have 4 business running with a manager for each. You can now just spend your time managing and overseeing these companies without doing them. Take a small piece of every pie to keep everyone happy. You should be making 100K or more NET!!
STEP 10: Look into bigger and better businesses. As your portfolio increases, so will your borrowing power and your ability to overcome bad times (business will get bad at times). Look into more challenging businesses or equipment (snow plows, snow cats, heavy machinery, etc.)
One you hit this level use your money to get into trades or branch out into trade businesses, including construction.
Really all you need are 2 things to achieve the above: determination and daily commitment.
Good luck, None of the above needs a high school degree. BUT IT DOES NEED MOTIVATION AND HARD WORK. Don't drink, dont do drugs, dont slack...they are all going to trap you.
Dropped out got my own business it all depends on the person
Maqueda’sLawnMaintenance what business you have man and how much money do you make?
Maqueda’sLawnMaintenance: I
don't think kids
should look at us and our "success" and say to them self. I'm gonna drop out too. They should take time to understand why they, truly want to drop out. But also take in consideration on what the consequences are to. I dropped due to my mental health and intrusive thoughts about harming others around me witch terrified me. It took me a full year to properly go over what
I was thinking. And then I did it. Although I missed out on school when I was 15. I fully knew the consequences and benefits on what I thought was good for me and it worked.

To make you’re own business you don’t need to graduate?
I dropped out in December, the moment I was able too. I regret it, I really do. I feel like I have not only managed to fail myself but, everyone whom has been trying to keep me motivated. I don't know what to do, I wanted to be a writer, a craftswoman, someone who could actually comply to get something completed. But, it just never happened. I'm 17, and I'm turning 18 this year, I don't have a job, I don't have money, I don't have friends, and the only thing I have are my grandparents and I fear that I'll get kicked out of the house in a few months. I can't manage on my own because I was diagnosed with severe anxiety along with other panic disorders. I know I'm not alone, there are people like me out in the world, I just can't ever find them. I was hoping that one day I could move with my boyfriend, have a kid, and be happy for once, be in the slightest bit successful. Clearly, it's not working out. I'll never be financially stable, I've been job hunting for these past few months with no word from any of the employers. I feel like I should give up, like I do with everything else. I keep slumping into depressive episodes and I feel useless, my boyfriend should find person more capable than me, he deserves better. I do nothing for the world, much like the world has nothing to offer me. I throw away my chances, and even when I try I have never been able to succeed.
It's getting to the point where I want to quit, leave the world behind and wish everyone the best, because I know even the people who are in this comment section, those who have watched this video, the ones who have already dropped out or are currently considering it, can do better than me. Because I have faith in them, while I have none in myself anymore.
I've failed every grade I've ever been in, K-12. I have a learning disability and for my younger years I hadn't been able to read, write, or do basic mathematics and, even now I struggle with it.
My main problem with the educational system in America, is that they tend to lean towards a specific group of people, and they try to teach every individual child the same way. When in reality, that tactic is bound to fail. It'll leave people questioning and confused, while others are more keen to understand.
These students who get left behind are treated as failures, kids who don't care. When in reality a majority of these students just don't understand, leaning them towards the option to stop trying. This is something schools need to work on, not only schools in America, but, schools in general.
and get your ged btw

I can't focus on that right now, I'm more concerned about my current job and moving out, I don't have time for anything else.
School don’t teach you how to make money the internet do
@Marlboro Man fucking Grammar Nazi
I dropped out when I was 15/16 because I had a major reconstruction surgery and left school for the remaining year. When I came back my mental state wasnt the greatest because all of the strain from the surgery. I'm 17 turning 18 next month and I've been trying to get my GED since then. The only thing I need to pass is math. I've taken classes and ive done online practice sheets but for some reason Im still struggling. So I kinda just held off on it. I applied at the l.a film school so I can learn more about producing. It's something I love to do. I have a scheduled call with them today but I know they wont accept me yet because I dont have a ged. I really hope everything plays out in the end. Life is hard for me but I know I'll make it.
Sooo how did it go!?
I hated high school and would’ve dropped out if my parents let me. The pressure to fit in and be accepted was too much. Online learning should be the future.
You’re so open minded in this video, I like it so much. I also really love how you said that the successful are the type of people who are driven and would be successful in any circumstance. :)
screw it im dropping out of school and working with my dad he teaches me more than i need to at school :)
And you get payed to show up
Nothing wrong with that as long as you’re making good money. Just be aware people get bored of any career in 7-9 years
I'm 22 years old and yes I dropped High School. Everything you said on the video happened to me, not only mentally but physically as I ended up getting a disease from being at my parents house doing nothing but living a bad lifestyle with bad healthy habits. Thanks for the advice! I'll just go and do it before it's too late, I know I can!
How were u earning money ?
I have let my family down i just hope they can forgive me
same here i wish i could get my fam out the hood but i just cant do this no more
For everyone who says "I have no future"
That's not true, everyone has a future even if you don't graduate the future lies in your hands and you should take any opportunity you get and use it to reach for the stars.
it is true for people who refuse to change
I came here expecting general tips for this topic, I got broad, profound wisdom and a change of mind about something I've thought about. Thank You.
Make sure you take advice from people who have walked the path not just fantasy land.

I dropped out of high school 1 month ago, I’m 16 and my mom works at a Mexican restaurant and hooked me up with a job and I make what a normal average adult makes but probably a little bit lower. Some days I make 120 a day others 200 dollars because of tips. I’ve only spent money on transportation and saved about 2 thousand dollars in a savings account, 600 dollars invested in robinhood( idk if their good investments 😭) and I’m co-signed with a credit card with my mom so that when I’m 18 my credit card experience will already be 3 years and have a jumpstart with credit enough to get a mortgage. I’m saving for when I’m 18 to buy a house. I know it’s 100.000 down but I’m also working on creating my own business on the side. I’m going to be my own boss one day and quit my job because honestly it’s miserable to serve old white cranky people food and clean their mess up, for a living
@@lxst..... Yeah having supportive parents definitely helps, Since last time. I no longer work at that restaurant but at a italian restaurant that i applied too. Yet at the same time im apllying to local stores for extra cash and work. Like a fuken burger store Lol.

I dropped out due to social anxiety and depression. I thought dropping out was for the best, but now it's been 3-4 years since and I'm more depressed than ever, my anxiety is much worse and I'm literally at a point in life where I'm just existing. I have no friends, real or virtually, I have no social interaction with anyone but my family. Im miserable. I see kids I went to school with graduating, going to prom, having the time of their lives, getting their lives together..and I'm sitting in my room having mental breakdowns everyday because I'm too afraid of going back to school/getting a job. I just cannot get myself to do it, I'm so scared and I don't know how to ask for help, that is why I'm ranting in a comment section to a video I haven't even started watching. :')
Same here.. same here…
Same for me but I think there’s positives about it
for all of you guys and girls thinking about dropping out, it's not worth it in 19 now soon 20 got kicked out junior year for being stupid and skipping and I see the light it's fucking hard to get a good job man fucking rough dude trust me hopefully I get. my ged, but just keep grinding brothers this will define your future stay strong
I started A-level in early October and now it's almost the end of the first term but for the past month it's literally the worst i have ever felt mentally and physically. I spoke to my parents about it yesterday, they told me finish the first year then i can drop out if it doesn't make me happy. (I go to all my classes but i feel like i barely ever understand and im not getting grades that satisfy me). Today they told me it's a stupid decision but still wants to call my school on Monday and tell them i want to drop out. Ik it's a short time to judge but im not happy at all. I wanted to do cake designing but they dont believe it'll be successful but they still 'support' me so irdk
according to statistics high school drop outs have alot of xyz problems, i think that maybe they dont have those problems because they droped out of highschool but they droped out of highschool because of problems which also affected their life as a whole
That’s true but i fixed my problems i’m moving out i’m ready to enjoy life.I was a bad ass b*tch from the start.But now i’m a independent bad ass b*tch😎
i dont know if im going to graduate this year im just watching this to prepare my self if ever im not going to graduate . Thankyou for this video .
Great channel. Good information 👍
feeling like dropping out and just getting my ged, i moved from ny to pa and it ain’t the same, i miss seeing my homies that are basically my brothers and it’s stressful because my fam always putting pressure on me saying that if i keep on skipping and not refuse to do school work imma end up as a bum in the corner doing the same crimes my dad used to do when he was in a gang, shit scares me because i don’t wanna be like him but school is so stressful, i just wanna feel free
niga u was made for streets .Don't cover it

@@hrefu Bruh wtf? lmao
Y’all that read this that aren’t seniors yet don’t give up still got so much time ahead to finish up all the work even if your behind. I’m a senior still and it’s basically my second year as one and I’m so close to being done. Stay in until you finish even if it’s late you still get it done.
Looking for an answer, or maybe comfort? I’m 16 and I just recently got out of a toxic household and I thought as soon I got out everything would blossom and be so much better. It hasn’t, I’m turning into something that I never thought I would and it’s not good. I adulted really fast in the past year and feel like I could get on with my life right now. It’s really hard to go to school everyday and keep up with all the work and then go to my job. I often don’t go or skip classes to have breakdowns in the bathroom. Yes, I feel like a complete looser because I can’t get my sh*t together. I feel like if I dropped out, I could just focus on me, getting better, and practice things that mean a lot to me and that I want to use for a career (running/art/photography). I feel like people I’m close with will be disappointed but they never asked how I was r e a l l y doing. Deep down I feel like life will go on whatever decision I make, because life is what you make of it, right? Still the guilt of being a looser who can’t persevere through a little basic schooling hurts.
Adrienne Chamberlain You are not a loser, nobody's a loser and don't do anything that would make people that are close to you sad like I know how it feels to just be sad like that and not talk to anyone about it like I was like that for a year but when I talked to my close friend, I got out of the depression and I'm currently doing very well in school so If I was able to get out of my depression, than you can too all you have to do is talk to the ones that are close to you like I know how it feels like to think they'll be disappointed but that feeling of them being disappointed is nothing but a lie so just talk to your close ones to get out of the depression, I promise that I'm confident that your close ones will help you if you just let them know your situation
I also know others like you that got out of depression by talking to the people that are close to them like how do you expect someone to help you if you don't let them know like if you want help than you have to let your close ones know than they'll be able to do so, this depression is something lots of people have broke through and got an amazing life out of it so if you truly want to have a good life than break through the depression by letting the people that are close to you know about your situation than I promise your life will start to improve from the point you let your close friends know your situation
u feel like a loser now in school. imagine how youd feel if u never finish it
I don’t know if you still need some advice but here just in case. Get your GED or some equivalency to a highschool diploma through an education program. If you don’t feel like going to college either because of financial problems, then go to community college. It’s much cheaper and then transfer or don’t transfer and just get your associates while working. If you don’t want to go to college at all then go to a trade school (they’re amazing by the way. Some pay you while you’re earning skills and education) or apply to degree/certificate programs in your interest. Dropping out of highschool or college don’t mean you’re a failure. Success is what you make of it. You got this 😌👍🏼
I'm a senior, and since covid hit I've been unable to complete school work. If I want to graduate, I have to pass the nine classes that I've failed this year and last, along with the four I've been assigned to this trimester. How can I even begin to do this when I lack the motivation to even get out of bed in the morning? I hate everything right now and I wanna just leave everything behind and live on the road by myself.
Im a junior, I've struggled with school almost my whole life, I average C's D's and F's, I especially started struggling my freshman year, my best friend killed himself halfway through first semester, this greatly effected my grades for almost 2 years, and now I'm dealing with being a full semester behind which means I won't graduate on time, would it be worth dropping out of highschool and immediately going for my GED? I personally don't want to but I don't think I can take more lectures from my teachers about how it's almost impossible for me to get my grades/ credits up, my parents say it might be worth it because my older brother did the same and is pretty successful in life, I just need another view of this
Damn I hope the best for you I'm thinking of dropping out but I'm going to make my research I'm 16 going into my sophomore year. Sorry about your friends death. 🙏
Damn man I feel like dropping out to tell me how you’re doing and what you’re up to if you’re still active on this account.
I'm in year 9 and 14, and I'm thinking about it.
But. My mum wouldn't let me, and I'm scared to even tell her I want to.
The thing is, I have depression and anxiety from school, and I have phobias of it.
When I'm in school and in lesson, I end up nearly falling asleep, and never concentrate, I dont even know timetables, but I learnt them at home by myself.
And even online school, I haven't been going to lessons, my mum doesnt know, but I feel worried she will be in trouble.
But all I want to do is drop out, (I'm from the uk) so what do I do?
I’m supposed to be graduating hs in 2021 but my dad decided he wants to change his life and move in another province so he gave me back to my mom who lives in a different country and I had missed a year of school then got me back after he settled with a new girlfriend got to live with them and go to school for 2 months before sending me back again to my mom because they broke up and he now wants to move to US and at this point I don’t think I really have a future left because I don’t even have the qualifications of reaching my dream to become a doctor or a lawyer and my mom doesn’t have enough money at the moment to enroll me to a new school and I can’t see a future anymore for me I think this is the end.
XxLM xX hey let’s talk I’ll help you out on some tips . Snapchat - Forever.bey
*You don't need school. Stop that "my life is over at 16 years old." I want you to find what you love right now. And I want you to get really fucking good at that shit. Then I want to see you create your own job. Whatever you love turn that into a business. You want to sleep for a living. Put that on Twitch and I want you to sleep like never before. If you can cook I want to see you on #1 on every single cooking search result. Trust me get good at something and people will come with support.*
RhymBil is right, strive for something you are good at and that you love and don't let these family stuff stop you from reaching your goal, You can still become a doctor or lawyer but now try to get a part time job that gives a good amount of money and save all that money to do what you want like make a business or your own job or you can try to get to school and there's always a way out of bad situations, all you have to do is find that way out and succeed I promise and I am confident you'll succeed
Dont Say you dont have a Life if your mom Dosent have your Dad the main man you be that 2nd main Man you dont Give up you hear me your future isnt gonna be ruined if you step up take Small steps shoudnt be Big keep walking up those stairs and im Certain every one of us will be successful.
in my country, they sadly dont have a GED. Its an only american thing I guess. I'll be fine though, we dont require a diploma to go to college, we just have to pay extra money. Pray for me, dropping out in my freshmen year after failing twice.
Man idk how they do it in your country but if you can’t pass freshman year I think you shouldn’t be to fast on going to college. Maybe just push through another’s year in highschool and try learning the basics
Dave Thomas, Walt Disney, Henry Ford,, Micheal Dell, all dropout out of High School, and it proves you can amount to financial success regardless.
my dream requires high knowledge. my fear is not being smart enough, and not having enough willpower to succeed in what i love.
Read books
If highschool actually taught stuff we would actually use in life I would like it a lot better
Actually it does. You just don’t realize it. Go into a trade school.
@@johnspence8141 I want to go to trade school just not highschool

@Marlboro Man it depends on what job he chooses
and then set in a chair for hours 😂😂
I am currently in college and I really don’t want to do what I am doing. This is partly because I have been very delusional in my own little fantasy land that I could start UA-cam and make it my career. I have myself wrapped up in this thought and now I am not doing the best in college as I should be doing but as of now I need to make a choice ;(
I have reasons to drop out
One, I don't get along with most of the students and there's no empathy between us, Also the few friends I have ignore me every time we have a conversation and I feel like an outcast in high school
Two, I have low-self esteem I've tried to work on it but every time I go to school is like they blow my esteem and makes feel bad
I'm not smart/intelligent, Since 9th grade I've been going downhill
Three, I don't wanna be a judge by my grades, If you don't pass a class and are held back, Basically they're telling you that you are a failure but of course they don't tell you
I've also been through depression, anxiety, stress and social anxiety since 9th grade, I'm done with it
I'll just tell my family about this and I know they won't agree with that but i don't care i wanna start again in my life and break free from the same cycle I live every day
He is telling the truth.I'm 60 and had to quit school because I just could not learn good.I can not get a lot of it.I fell behind in every subject.It got so bad that I quit going.I learned just enough basics to fake it.So I learned a trade.I beat myself up all the time about it.I have a forth grade education.I have to hide it from most people, im so imbarest about it.Now that I'm 60 I am teaching myself little at a time.Learning a trade that is in demand is a good way to go.Now that I don't work and have the time,I'm teaching myself.Just for piece of mind.
I was born in Scotland, but when I was 2 yo, i came to Mexico and here the education it’s pure shit, i always hope to be in a first world country when i grew up.

@@RoninStormTopicTalks man I will be 23 when I finish high School.....also if my parents shouts at me every day, I would've beaten them
Look don't think that way, it's never too late for anyone like I know some people that were your age and were in your situation but they were able to get jobs, have a family and have a good life so if they can do it so can you and the reason why your parents are acting the way they are towards you is because they love you like it's impossible for them to hate you for a decision you wanted to make, they'll go above and beyond to do anything for you and there most likely really stressed not becasue of you, because of them trying to make the absolute best out of the situation your in and you should try to find a way to get money and never give uo there's always a way out, you just have to find it that's all so try to make some human contact with someone outside your family and try to parner up with them to do something like a financial business for example and don't forget that your parents will always have faith in you being able to succeed in life
right now, your parents have a lot of faith in you and I also have a lot of faith in you that you'll be able to succeed don't worry about failing for a bit like everyone fails for a bit but than they succeed so don't worry if you fail at first, you have to be confident that you will be able to make it, I promise that me and your parents are confident that you'll be able to make it out of this dire situation and succeed
1969 dropped out out of HS, I was in my Junior Year. This was in Feb., June of that same year I passed all the Armed Forces Entrance Exams and enlisted in the US Army. Served two tours in Vietnam and Honorably Discharged. I also got my GED while I was in the Military. Worked for the Federal Government for 34 Years. Retired, living life day by day. Never had a problem without a HS Diploma. Oh almost forgot, earned a BS in Civil Engineering in 1979. I think most of it depends on the individual.
Bit of different era, way less stigma and a lot more opportunity. Nowadays its just another status thing for people. Like pay size.
Ok Boomer. Happy 70th.
So can anyone agree that even tho u tell your teacher about how deppess u go to school but they dont give a shit they just say just try harder
Dropped out twice my senior year went back to an alternative school and stuck it out and got my diploma
This is so true , I’m 45 years old and I just got my GED on 6/1/2020 and what a relief, before I got my ged I used to have dreams of regret for not graduating and it weighed on my conscious and I was insecure about dropping out and not having my GED , and now that I got it I can sleep comfortably now and now I can say that I have my GED !!!!!! God is great!!!!
Spurs nation was getting your ged difficult? Or what you needed to do I'm new and I think I'm going to do the same process as you of getting my ged?can I get 25 credits in less than 2 months?
No it’s not difficult at all, just go to ged.com and schedule your test on line ,then study , each test is 35.00 dollars and there’s 4 tests you need to complete but you can take them at your own pace
Spurs nation 4 test on the same subject or different subjects? I need to take 4 classes in order to get my diploma or credit to graduate.
No just 1 test per subject
Spurs nation thank you so much!!
Ugh I feel so stupid. I’m a freshman and doing online school rn and my grades are pretty low. In middle school I had very good grades and had motivation because I wanted to be a surgeon. Now I’m not really sure what I want to do when I’m older. I feel like I used all of my smartness in middle school and now I’m dumb in high school. I have no motivation to do anything and I have no talents. I’m really not good at anything so I’m not sure what to do with my future.
I’m a freshman as well. I have all f’s and my depression has only gotten worse. I just don’t have the right mindset for school, and it’s sad that people really think u can’t be anything without school. I’m honestly thinking about working on my singing and trying to come out of my shell. I’m really thinking about dropping out n getting my GED. I won’t be able to finish school all the way through.

I’m thinking about dropping out and same, I had really good grades in elementary all the way to 7th grade and had proper motivation, but ever sense I got into my sophomore year i have been failing all my classes from the beginning of the year and I have no idea what I want to do for work either if I finish HS or dropout
6 years ago my mom, brother and me moved into a new apartment whenever I was about to start 6th grade. I was a little nervous as anyone would be. Starting a new grade in a different district where I didn't know anyone was kinda nerve wracking to say the least. At first things seemed to be fine until I really noticed just how lonely I was. Everyone around me seemed to be all acquainted from grade school and already had their established friend groups while I was just on my own little island. Because of this I leaned a lot on my academics and would study more. It was the only sense of acknowledgement I felt helping out other classmates from time to time, even carrying entire group projects and getting nice compliments from my teachers. Unfortunately where my old middle school was is pretty close to a ghetto part of town I lived right outside of, so some of the kids there weren't brought up in nesscarily the best way. This resulted in some rude comments since puberty and abit of acene on my head hit me the hardest. Then a girl whose twin brother I'd help out a lot in my science class randomly came up to me while I was unlocking my locker with a key since I didn't have a code combination lock. And yanked my keychain with my neck still inside of it and told her to stop, she mocked me and managed to slip it off my neck and ran down the hallway in front of everyone and I chased her until we we're in an entirely different corridor before she finally threw my keychain with my keys and ID card on the ground. Another thing I remember was this one tomboy who came up to my table in Art who wasn't supposed to be sitting with the rest of my group and I remember at one point telling her and everyone else when I got older I wanted to become a game dev and was trying to learn a scripting language I ended up forgetting about. And she was quick to trash on me for wanting to do that and called into question if I was even smart enough which hurt abit and continued to say other rude things. Then there was a regular at my table who was also abit of an ass, but I got along better with him and even called him a friend at one point but he laughed it off and said we weren't which catched me off guard. I could go on with a few more stories like finding my binder drenched in a puddle after lunch. Which honestly looking back on it is very cheesy and idk who took the time out of their day to do that but it was my P.E teacher out of all people who helped me find it. The bullying wasn't as frequent as one could imagine. Most of this stuff had a few weeks or months in between them. But from my perspective it was either just regular old boring school or that. I didn't really realize this at the time, but because of all these things that we're happening to me I started devolping anxiety and was very likely the main reason I never felt that encouraged to try and make new friends after that. So I would just spend most of my time during lunch on the grassfield sitting next to tree in the back. Either just on my phone or looking at the highway the school overlooked and sometimes wondering while looking up at the sky what my old friends from grade school we're doing since we didn't keep in touch cause I only got a smart phone the summer after 5th grade for my bday.
And that's it pretty much went for the whole year.
I never told my mom about anything then cause she was dealing with her own problems and stress. After she broke up with our 'step father' who wasn't the best kinda guy you could imagine. Before we moved. And even after we did they got back together and would still fight pretty often. I didn't wanna be burden and put more stress on her so I kept my feelings hidden and would come home feeling very defeated sometimes, I would try to act like nothing was wrong though whenever I picked my brother up from the elementary school down the road from our place but after that I was either doing homework, sleeping or playing video games cause I slacked quite abit on chores which definitely wasn't helping my mom out and is something I regret even now. I was also just confused with myself and even felt ashamed to be depressed in fear of what others might say or think of me, I had been through quite abit of hardship already in the past but this all felt new to me.
Moving onto seventh. Things were much lighter. I became good friends with one of my classmates I knew from last year and also met his best friend which I also get along with very well. And it was a overall good time but I still was pretty anxiety ridden and didn't really hang out with anyone else besides the two. But during the year the friend I mentioned I knew from last year had moved away cause I think his dad passed away and then during the summer I was talking to my other friend in a Playstation party and he was in the middle of talking to me when his mom came into the room and yelled at him for something I don't remember and he said he was busy and in the middle of a conversation with me but she wasn't having it I guess and grounded him. I also remember her saying she made up her mind that she was signing my friend up to this charter school, and not long after the party ended. We stood in touch still after that and our other friend would still talk to us as well since he went over 'friend 2's' house. But starting 8th grade there wasn't to much time for chit cattering. Another classmate who knew me and my friends starting talking to me more cause I'm pretty sure he knew I was lonely and I thank him deeply for trying to help me. And introduced me to his friend group which ended up jacking my spot where I used to sit back in 6th and sometimes 7th during lunch. And they we're all pretty chill, I was mainly talking to my classmate I knew or new friend by this point, cause the others really never payed me to much attention which I was fine with since I was still suffering pretty badly with anxiety. It just felt refreshing and a little comforting being in a decent size group. Also my brother started middle school and my cousin's cousins we're also there that year which was kinda cool I guess though I didn't see them around that often. As for my friend that got enrolled in the charter school, he was doing pretty fine even though we weren't talking as much. I later found out during freshman year of high school from a classmate who transferred back to public school that my friend was almost thriving in his new environment and fitted in better over there and started a discord with like half the school in it which I was happy to hear about him, it made abit of sense too since later on in 8th grade we'd almost stopped talking entirely for abit. But getting back to highschool at this point it was 2019 and things were going pretty smoothly. My friend from last year in 8th we're hanging out and going to see dollar movies with on other friend too and I really felt like I was starting to warm up to people again both outside and in school and was slowly coming out of my shell. Mental health was looking up and grades we're good. But before you knew it we we're in 2020. And I don't think I have to explain what happened that year...
At first it was just a little polarizing since we didn't really have to go to school anymore post March or even sign into online classes since it was just gonna be repeats of the same lessons we'd already learned throughout the year and everyone just got a pass on their second semester report card. So we we're stuck inside indefinitely. And I was just playing video games as usual since I really haven't been an outdoorsy person since before I was in middle school. And to be honest those first few months of the pandemic we're actually kinda fun for me since I was just playing on my ps4 with my cousin and his others ones since my friend I mainly hanged out with just played on Switch at the time and the other one that was at the charter school was pretty much Pc gaming only at that point plus pretty busy with his new buds and I didn't have a Pc so yeah.
But eventually the start of the next school year started and I don't think anyone really knew what to expect. I started feeling a little nerve wrecked again just like how I felt whenever I started 6th grade back then. And I tried my best keeping up with barrage of assignments teachers would give us. I don't really blame them though because I don't know what I would've done if I we're in their shoes. Like we we're in small class calls for a few minutes from 7-12pm. For EVERY class so you could imagine the calls weren't to long,
then off to the work it was. I was even recommended for AVID which I happily accepted and made one of my elective courses since I had always been a consistent honor student ever since
the first semester of middle school. But the amount of work each class was assigning was demanding in such short time. I swear all the classes would give us lengthy assignments each and would expect us to have it completely finished the next day over and over. Gone were the days where you'd have two or maybe three days to complete an important assignment, or something even longer like a week. The only time they gave us small packet sized work was like the first two weeks of school. After that everything felt haywire and I found myself staying up till midnight on my chrome desktop cause you'd have barely anytime in the day to have a little time to yourself if you we're breezing through the onslaught of work on your plate. Like don't get wrong I like gluing my eyes on screens and all but even so school just didn't work well in this format for me. I envied my younger brother's classes who was still in middle school at the time. And seeing his teachers actually go through the lessons with them. It seemed a lot less stressful than the input my teachers gave me and my classmates in a 30 minute call. Then they send us off to the academic beaches of Normandy. That old feeling of anxiety was starting to trigger back inside me and had seriously doubted if I could keep up with this work or not. And then I had family issues going on with my 'step dad' again and later he left and took my brother's with him. I didn't mention over the course of middle school I had gotten two new little brothers that me and family love a lot. But my mom was the most hesrt broken over this cause she without doubt took care of them more than our Step dad did, hell even I watched them better. But while that was going on I had pretty much already quitted the school year around October because I just couldn't take it anymore. And I just layed down and did a whole lot of nothing for literally the rest of the year in misery. If you were to tell me that just a year prior I would've thought that as completely absurd but there I was just completely dead inside and disappointed in myself and didn't even bother asking for help. I joined a IEP meeting with some of my teachers there and I flat out told them how I felt but even so that it was no good excuse to completely slack. They recommended me the school counselor and I'm pretty they called once but I slept in and was to afraid to call back someone who was just trying to see what was wrong with me and help. I now found myself rejecting help and lying to one of my friends about where I've been and my schedule was just switched on the zoom calls.
I'm thinking of dropping out at grade 10 or 11, I'm severely depressed with an unstable mental state, I throw up at the thought of going to school, it's just too much.
Ya that shit sucks hope u make it big 🙏
Dropping out of highschool is a big risk, and even tho dropping out might now be the smartest thing, a lot of the people who choose to are actually much smarter than people who go to college and are making a million a year while their classmates are still in year 4 of college
Get a ged study study study and you will 100% pass
please take time to read if not thats okay.
Im a sophomore in high school about be a junior in 2 weeks. During freshman year i failed Algebra and Biology twice so i was already 20 credits behind. I failed every single class last semester and am currently failing all right now and everything closes next week. So im like 80 credits behind and i know its my fault i didnt do jack shit this year. Should i just dropout at this point and start working?? and when im 18 try to get a GED and try to enlist in the Military?
Went from a 4.2gpa to whatever it is now thanks to the quarantine I feel like a lot of seniors got hit by this and lost all motivation
yea I feel like its pointless now tbh
Yeah I’m a senior and im getting failing and I’m just tired I actually think I’m just gonna say fuck it and get a ged or idk
i cant believe our parents are letting this happen to us.
What is a job i could get as a dropout that has decent pay like 15-20 an hour i been looking at different companies
I got my RLA and Social Studies test on the first try. in a few weeks I will be taking my Science and Math test again fingers crossed with going for my GED. I would like to tell everybody watching this video this is true what he said. I always felt I was different from my 3 sisters and brother they all finished highschool on time. And till this day they try to make me feel bad. But I don't we all have a choice to do this or not. It is all up to us to finish and get our GED for us and nobody else!!!!!!
Both drop outs and graduates both choose what happens in their life it's just whatever choice you make afterwards is gonna take you down a certain road
Junior year sucks man. I wake up at 6, and wait til 3. I’m finally realizing how hard classes are starting to become. Hopefully I’ll graduate and figure out what to do in life. (I will come back in 2 years)
How are you now
Im 16 years old i dropped out and someone wants me to go to some sort of school they say I cant be out here without going to school are they right? Btw im from chicago
High school is like a game of golf you just gotta play the course and eventually you'll finish.
I’m thinking of dropping out, working some time, and save enough to go to a music school I’ve been looking into for a while. I’m 17 and i live in Virginia what would happen if i just stop going now?
Idk man ,.... idk
I’m also seventeen and I happen to live in Virginia aswell. I just find school to be dull, menial, and not as meaningfully engaging as I would want it to be be. Everyday is the feeling of dread and angst and I just want out of high school. Im just afraid that doing so would vex my own future for life.
Lonely Mountain same here but i kinda have a plan and a job setup so i think I’ll be alright
Honestly bro. Just finish. You've come this far just cross the finish line.
I haven’t dropped out of high school but I kinda wanna cause i struggle a lot on it lots of people don’t like me I feel like I should cause my grades aren’t as well either is difficult my parents are divorced and I am depressed
i just got into high school when online learning started. the whole system threw me off and really took a toll on me. the stress drove me to cutting myself, and i don't know where to go. i already know i'm not gonna be able to pass this year. i don't even know where i'm going if i make it further into life. if i do drop out, i know something is bound to go wrong. i live in california, housing is very expensive here. i don't know if i'll even afford housing.
Damn that’s fucking tuff pray to god shit goes normal soon cuz first year of high school is lit damn I feel bad for y’all freshman’s
In 9th grade i got very sick and was in out of the hostpital so my mom pulled me out of school and the next i tried to go back to school to start 9th grade again but they put me in all 10th grade classes when i didnt even have any credits from 9th grade so i failing classes because i didnt understand anything so when i turned 16 my mom let me drop out and made me study for my ged for 2 years and im now 18 and im take the test to get my ged now and then i plan on going to school of cyber security
I've hated school since i was in 2nd grade....it's so damaging to my mental heath. I loveeeeeeeee learning seriously. I just HATEEEEEEEE the way school teaches and they don't teach anything i'm seeking. It's not like i get bullied or i don't have friends. School just isn't for me...fuck i hate it so much.
I’m fucking trying my best but it’s never enough I just think maybe it’s time for me to drop out for real this time. I have no motivation these teachers marking me absent while I’m in class and not checking my work I’m just tired. It’s like they want me to fail. We’re in a whole pandemic and they’re being so hard on us I’m done. I don’t know what to do anymore. It’s either imma kill myself or just run away and drop out.
definitely dont kill yourself and dont dropout yet, at least make sure you can get your ged if you do dropout but if you want to do it is your choice (dropping out) i am going to do it i don’t encourage it tho
I’m a smart intellectual girl going in 11th grade who has an opportunity to go far in the education path but I also want to live life and not waste my time disappointed by the number I got on my test. I want to live life but I don’t want to end up on the streets broke. I wanna make money but I don’t want to have a part time job. Dropping out has been on my mind lots and Imm just so confused??
It’s mostly Bc mental health and bein alone, home problems that kinda stuff that makes me want to drop out soooooo bad but if I do Ik ima be a disappointment to my family 😅 but I think mental health is way more important than making everyone happy
Well I dropped out of college and I'm officially a retired student. The good news is I have a job to keep me going 24/7
I want to finish school, I’m 15 and I’m trying to hard, but a lot of the time when I think about doing homework I consider killing myself instead, I don’t understand anything. I’m so stressed and everyone things I’m stupid and I constantly and told I’m never going to make it anywhere in life and I’m just scared.. my sister finished highschool a year early, they don’t deal with mental health problems.. I’m constantly having panic attacks because I’m forced to go to school with my rapist and now carona is just making everything worse and I just can’t do it.. I know I’m going to disappoint everyone but I just can’t do it.. I’m going to die if I don’t focus on my mental health, but no one will let me.. all they care about it grades.. I’m so drained, my parents have convinced me I’m worthless
I know the stress of school, and the unrealistic standards that people make of you, but I’m not going through everything you are going through. I wish you the best, and want you to live the best life. Hopefully you can get out of the pit that your in right now. All the best.
hope your someone big in the future 🙏
I tried to show this video to my son whose saying hes dropping out and you have to understand that it took you so long to get to the point that he walked out of the room uggg
nothin happen to me i just stay at my mom and dad's house and it sucks now 29 years old my parents want me out trying too force me too go back too school.
Reading the comment section made me realize how ludicrous and pathetic the education system is. So many things need to be changed.
Facts 💯
For people who don’t like the school system there is another way
Instead of learning a lot about a little e.g getting a degree in vetinery science
You can learn a little about a lot
Like understanding the basics of everything you could make money off
I’m talking about 2 possible things
Business - own a business but you’ll be working wayyyyy more harder,mundane task that any school has aswell as go through all the tough learning but you get to be your own independent boss. But you litterally need to start RIGHT NOW
Second, is he an investor
All you need is about $500
Learn everything you can about graphs and markets
E.g
Graph indicators
Types of graphs
Crypto market
Stock market
Different charts
Real estate
Chart patterns
Accounting (learning doesn’t mean degree but going for a degree will teach you it)
Law
Etc
The positive is the only hard part is learning, all your income is passive and you have the most mobility to minimize tax
unfortunately all post secondary institutes will not accept anyone without a high school degree...or equivalent.
John Spence ya don’t need a degree to make money
Only to work for it
A philosophy major isn’t about money it’s about philosophy
Learn about money and you make money
@@idontmakevideossubscribe1503You're mixing up your messages so much there, it makes me think your late teens philosophy might work to get a few bras off, but is overall pretty pathetic. You're right, to practice true philosophy you need to be well learned on all philosophical works (but you don't need a degree to do that man!) You're right, you need the discipline to read through them all on a regular schedule. (Ya but I can learn that on my own man!) Ya but you don't. You couldn't even handle high schools schedule. The truth is that people drop out and don't pursue shit...they don't pursue philosophy, music or literature, and if they do they waste so much time on the wrong shit that they end up on youtube saying "you don't need a degree to make money". Well you do dipshit. I pointed out the stats. The stats don't lie. And people who drop out of high school arent BUSINESS GENIUSES...they're usually poorly motivated, FOR WHATEVER REASON, but the next time, play a little game...ask every person down and out that you see on the street if they have a high school diploma. Then research all your heroes and see if they have a degree. Happy hunting twat.
Can I get some comments going here is it worth it to drop out get my ged and Pursue trade school

if u drop the gang stuff & start using the letter c, you might see improvements. a lifestyle is hard to change tho
For those of you struggling with depression, count your blessings, focus on what you have/ good things you have, always be grateful, think about others, every human being/ living thing on earth has some sort of blessings, you are a human being, count your blessings (such as just being alive, or being able to access the internet, eating, drinking, etc.)
Haven’t even been in it that long and I already want to dropout
To bad you need formal education in bluecollar trades not alwaysc4 year degree but atleast certifications
@Marlboro Man b's. For HVAC IT and trucking you need licenses. Plus I'm a central service worker with certs and school this ain't the 70s Mr . Marlboro
@Marlboro Man I have a degree that I don't use jackass. 4 year degrees can be useless 👏 you just discovered that. But most trades even tech based ones require some certifications. If you wanna flip patties and roof houses or scrub propane tanks live without a GED fine. But just don't tell the youth to be dropout losers like you. Get off my case and fine a civilized occupation
So if u don’t graduate and do summer school do u still graduate late?
I’m a senior and today I got a call saying that you can’t graduate because your failing 5 classes and you need at least 24 credits to graduate I only have three months left I’m failing my classes by 50’s and 40’s
