what can i do 2 drop out right NOW

Answer 1

I'm thinkin you need some counseling. Do you have an adult you trust who can point you in the right direction? At school? a church youth leader? A kids help line?

Find someone!

You're worth it !

Answer 2

I think you should reconsider.  How will you make a living, support yourself and/ or a family?  Although you may seem sure of this, you are a little young to be making this huge decision.  You may regret this later.  What are you planning to do in your free time and in the future.  I know 14/ 15 seems old, and you are entitled to make some decisions, but it is still young to be doing something that will so drastically affect your future. I am only two years older than you, and I can see that I have had thoughts like this before also.  I'm very glad I didn't follow through.  The years will go by fast, and before you know it, you will be graduating, and then you should see if you want to pursue furthure education.

Answer 3

Answer 6

Well, a word of advice, don't drop out of high School it's one of the main sources of free education you think life is hard now, think of how much it's going to hurt your future. Education in this generation and Dane age, is very important it's because we live a very technological lifestyle.

If you see no other way in completing high school perhaps, go to night school, or home schooling. If it's peer problems maybe a different school. Or seek an outsiders help, there are lots of helplines. You're not alone. However, dropping out will not have any good side effects.

I hope my advice has helped make a difference in your life.

Sincerely,

Genevieve

Answer 7

I'm 34 and finished high school never went to collage and now i have a hard time getting a job and when i do its only temporarily because some younger person comes in with a collage degree or something higher. so why do you want to drop out?????

Answer 8

Well a 14 year old making plans for the future. Your parents must be very proud.

Answer 9

Let me first say that an education needs to be completed especially high school. It will make a difference concerning career fields, and it will keep you from having to complete it later in life. It sounds like you may want to talk to some trusted adult counselor at school and get some things cleared up, I would recommend that you stay in school and complete your education. You will certainly benefit from it greatly later in life. Don't be discouraged that things are hard to do. Anything worth while is hard to do. Sometimes life will be much harder than any school work you could face. Do not be a quitter. Quitters never win, and winners never quit.

Answer 10

well what you could do right now is see what type of job you can get at age 15 that will allow you to support yourself.

Making adult decisions requires you to take on adult responsibilities and I'm sure your parents would respect your Independence enough to not get in the way of you supporting yourself.

If you don't think you can get a job at fifteen that will pay the rent, buy you a car, pay for your insurance, keep the lights and the water on, buy you basic furniture and put some food in the fridge (after you buy one of course), then perhaps you should reconsider your position.

And if you think the options are much better for an 18 yr old drop out, find one and talk to them and see how that worked out for them. More than likely they decided to either go back to school or get their GED so they could go to college and get a job to support themselves.

Answer 11

You can start by changing your vivatar from a clean cut well dressed young man into the unfulfilling, drop out that you want to become.

Answer 12

Why would you want to drop out? By your age, you only have a couple more years to go. Plus I am not sure about where you live, but where I am from you cant drop out until your 18, without the parents getting into trouble.

Answer 13

OY!  What stinkin thinkin.  

You are going to be able to take real good care of yourself and your woman and multiple kids on the income a dropout generates aren't you?  oh wait, you'll be on welfare and we'll be paying for you and your woman and kids!!   I forgot that part.  You'll live in gov't housing, have foodstamps, medical card, and get gov't money each month... and your kids will plan to drop out at 14 too.....  

I see it all the time.   Stay in school.   Study - get good grades.   Go to a vo-tech if you have one - pick a trade - learn something - get a good job.  

You really will want to be able to buy things and have nice things.   You will want to be able to do nice things for you family and kids.   Honest.   You won't always be a selfish teenager that only thinks of yourself.  It may take a while, but you will mature.   Then you will look back with a lot of regret and you will have a lot of wasted years.

Go in the military - wow - will they help you to grow up fast!  They will either make you or break you.   My dh wasn't a brain in high school. His parents barely cared what he did, as long as he ran the family gas station.   He couldn't wait to get out.   Signed up for the Navy- went right in after high school - really grew up and matured while in there.   Started some college classes while aboard ship, finished college once he got out - has a great job now - and I get to stay home full time with our children.  (I've been home over 16 years with them - not a lot of moms get to do that these days) I'm fortunate - and I'm grateful to my husband for that.  He works hard, he got a good education, a good job - and provides well for us.   In school - who'd have thought it.   BUT - he did stick it out and graduate.

Answer 14

So, you're ready to go out and work and pay the bills and take care of yourself? If not, then you need to keep doing school stuff. You don't have to be in school--you could homeschool and spend more time learning what you want to learn. Talk to your parents about the possibility.

Btw, your reasoning is faulty. That's like saying that you should just let yourself die now because you know you'll die. Or that you shouldn't get a particular job because you know you won't stay in it forever. It's not SMART.

Answer 15

Don't drop out of school !!

Even if you do hate it, it WILL help you in the future.

Answer 16

Why are you dropping out? That's ridiculous!
