Hey JerseyGirl,

If I were a teacher I would have the chart on this link posted in my classroom....

Just food for thought.


PS......If you see some cute little Italian girl with ice blue eyes named LouAnn, from Lawrenceville tell her "Hey" for me.

Believe it or not my avatar is a Hutterite.

At 15 she became an adult and was allowed to finish her grade. She wasn't doing too well in school so that fall she was told she was worth more to the Colony in the Daycare than in school.

How's that for communal parenting?

She dropped out of the Colony and got a job. Now at 23 she is finishing high school and working towards university.

Not all people who drop out do of their own choice.

Bobby

If you got an IN you don't really need the degree/diploma depending on what you do.

There is a manager here making over $100k+ that dropped out because he did co-op here, that was 10+ years ago, he still works here. Nobody cares he doesn't have a fancy piece of paper, his work experience is what counts.

I dropped out of university to get a faster track through college, it was the choice for me I ended up with a starting salary higher than the Uni guys and I started 1 year before the big crash, if I would have been in school 1 more year, chances are I wouldn't have a job.
