(sorry, I have brought this up a million times..but...) I'm in an odd mood..and this thought struck me. What if it'd be better to stay in school? I mean..if I drop out, I will have more heat from my family and I will have no social contact at all. And I think the best thing for me now is to try and be as social as possible. I know I get desperate and say certain things (sometimes I do not even mean them) maybe I'm just desperate now, for change. And well..school forces social interaction, and who knows..if I do stay, maybe somebody will like me Anyway, what are your thoughts on this? Am I just being stupid or in a good mood?

I think you are being smart on this. Except I don't think your soul reason for staying in school should be social interaction. There are so many more reasons to stay in school.

Then can you name some more reasons? I don't care if I get smart or how crappy my job's pay will be.

You've got people who like you at school. *Points to all other posting members of the board* and Trisha's got a point about the jobs. You can't even enlist in the most basic part of the military without a degree.
AND! With your family, not only will the give you more heat, but! you also will be FORCED to spend EVERY hour of the day at home! With Them! Come on Erin, I know you'd hate that. not even WoW could save you from that torture.

*has as seizure at the thought of WoW not working* Your arguements are convincing...actually...the more I'm thinking about it the worse idea it is to drop out..why didn't I think about all this before? D:

Because, I dunno. But yeah. Come on, if anything, don't drop out because if you did, you'd have more steam from your family, and you'd have to be with them and at that house, ALL DAY LONG!
Remember that.

Yea. And you would care how crappy your job would be once you got there. That would just boil your self esteem down to even more of a pulp.

You know, i just remembered the perfect proving point.
My Sister.
She dropped out of high school, and her life has been shit since. And even in places where they cant track her criminal record (that part ahd nothing to do with dropping out) she still gets jobs like milking cows for 5 dollars an hour because she's doesn't even have a high school degree. She can't do ANYTHING with her life, or afford leaving her shitty husband, becuase hse cant get a job that pays for anything other than the most basic necessities.
Neurotically Yours, Mercedes

I actually don't care about jobs or money right now. I'm still a freeloader so I don't have to worry. It's mainly being around my family and the self esteem thing (trish brought it up) But, I always thought the effets of dropping out were always overexaggurated..but..
