I went to a school in the US that has a big time party reputation. I graduated as a mostly B-/C+ student and only years removed from college did I recognize how easy it would have been to party too much and fail/drop out. I’m more proud of being able to focus enough between the ages of 17-21 while learning how to live thousands of miles away from my family than I am if the actual education. Being independent and accountable at such a young age is def not for everyone.
Like the 9yr old Pennsylvania boy who got his high school diploma, putting him through 9 more years of grade school would be unproductive >

I want to say that formal education is not for everyone  but at least I believe normal functioning adult should comprehend newspapers. >

The best advice I ever received was: Don't get a degree unless it's required for the career you want. There are PLENTY of secondary education options to pursue for "better employment." People can often find more monetary success with a 2-year welding degree from a local trade school than with a 4-year degree in the arts for a top university. >

Sorry I trusted my Android keyboard >
