text: My first reason is having to take care of a sick or injured family member. In some families students that attend schools has to take care of someone thats sick or injured because that's who the sick or injured person only has in life. Some days the students are not going to be able to go to school because they have to watch after them, and some students can't even make it to school at all. I have a friend name Generic_Name, and she has a brother name Generic_Name that she takes care of everyday. She doesnt attend school at the moment because her brother is special needs, and he needs her help throughout the day while their parents are at work. Generic_Name makes sure her brother eats, takes his medicine when needed, and bathes every morning like he's supposes to. Generic_Name is not able to go to school like the rest of us, so she takes online classes instead to make things easier for her. It allows her to do the classes whenever she wants or needs to, so if she's busy at the moment helping her brother it won't affected her classes online. Even though Generic_Name doesnt attend school her dream is to graduate like the rest of us and get her diploma on time.
