[QUOTE="Crayola13, post: 707658, member: 21066"] You said he doesn't see any point in getting a high school diploma? Even certain fast food restaurants won't hire drop-outs. Does he not have any goals for his future? If that is how he really feels, he needs to be counseled by a guidance counselor or therapist. If he thinks he can have a career path without a high school diploma, he is mistaken. Trade schools, seminary, military, bus driver, and every other job requires a high school diploma. Kids who drop out do not fare well in life. They commit crimes because they can't make a living and end up in jail. His chances of becoming a convict go up drastically if he drops out. I can't imagine he would want to do nothing with his life. If he thinks he can get a job at a fast food restaurant and work his way up to manager, it still can't happen without a high school diploma.
