@Journaling4Me my mom kicked me out of the house. So I went to live with my aunt but that didn't last long

@Ilovelily1986 That sounds like a rough start, but I bet you did pretty good for yourself.🤗 I moved into my own place with my boyfriend, who later became my Husband.

@Journaling4Me I guess I will have to make a post about it on here

I didn’t particularly enjoy school, but I stuck with it. That said, I’ve never attended any reunions and have zero interest in ever doing so.

@BamPow Same here. I never had any interest in class reunions. (Next year will be 50 ! 😳)
The few friends I had were in other grades, anyway.

I fkn loved school. I was a class clown and got along with every group of kids in school. I loved sports too, and was pretty good at wrestling, baseball, and football. I was also a partier and drank and did a lot of drugs. However, I had a 4.0 GPA as well. Man, now that I think about it, high school years were some of the best years of my life.

I didn’t love school, but no, dropping out wasn’t an option. My mother was a teacher ! 😓

@bijouxbroussard my mom was a 6th grade teacher. There was no such thing as dropping out.

Schools in Canada don't start back until after Labour Day.
I couldn't imagine going to school during the Summer

@chrisCA That used to be the case in most U.S. schools, too. Labor Day was our last break before the Fall Semester.
I did

That’s definitely something that has changed. We never began the new semester until September.

I finished at 16.

I managed a year at university before dropping out
jackson55 · M
Why would you drop out at 15 ?

@jackson55 I just hated school. I had to retake 8th because I failed it
