I had to go to school at 17. My entire childhood I was told that my life would be over if I didn’t and I would be set if I did. Couldn’t get a job after I finished undergrad, but I still needed to put food on my table. I could get federal loans if I went back to school, so I did.
Another shit part is for some people it does work, and they never have an inkling that there is another side. So they sit there all “bootstraps” this and “self made” that. Their parents fed them the lie because they didn’t know any better or worse, did. But it all worked out and now they are conservative.
Look, you are intelligent and able to communicate clearly. That is more than a great many adults I run into. You can find your way in this world, but it is going to be your way and not your parent’s.
