I'm in such a bad situation. Either I wait 4 years of an alternative high school to get my credentials or I pay a lot of money which I don't have for papers to do my ged.

I need a high school equivalency to apply for college and I probably don't meet the requirements to be a mature student even though I'm 19.

I have anger management in february, I do work with my dad and make money. I can't keep waking up and not learning each day, no one is able to help me but me and I don't know how to do this stuff.

I guess what I'm here for is some advice, I have no work experience, but I'm smart.
Meh oh well I guess...

If you work with your dad, you have work experience. Also you can do voluntary work which gives you experience. Work your way up the ranks

You say you cant wake up every day and not learn, but you learn every day! Everyone learns every day! You learn the important stuff through life, not through school.

I left school in year 10, doesnt mean I'm stupid or that there's no hope for me in life. Mainstream education isn't the only way forward. There's more to life than the education system. You cant let it get to you, you've just gotta trust that you'll get to where you want to be in life. It may not be the way you thought it'd be, it may not be the way everyone else does it, but you'll get there

I think you should go for the work experience with your dad too. ^ That basically.

Man up and make the best of your situation. Shit could be a lot worse, you just sound lazy.

I sound lazy? Bro I work hard in construction, I wake up and clean up my area and do a lot of things. Don't judge me.

Hi honey . What I'd suggest is for you to save up the money you make from working with your dad and pay for those GED papers. Otherwise, I'd do the alternative high school route. If you really want to go to college, it's worth the wait .

^ That sums everything up.
