Pressures of the family, teachers, āguidance staffā, administrators, friends, and society as a whole (thanks to the social competition that is fb) ALL shoving college down your throat as the only acceptable option. Teachers literally laughing at the prospect of trade school. AFTER, boomers took out the various shop classes/ home ec etc cutting options even further. Iām am SO SICK of older retards blaming 17yo children for not screaming into the void against the whole system (not that any of them listened when we did voice our opinions- saying maybe not to college just led to āback in my day...uphill both ways...school and a job...ā conversations. Iāve had a job since 15 and had TWO while going to school and still had to take loans [boomers did great with letting the gov take control of that too, just like the DOE] just to try and keep up with the inflated price and flooded job market). The old fucks are the ones that caused ALL these problems (hint: IT WASNT KIDS on the little league boards voting to give participation trophies. WE didnāt federalize these systems; YOU did, and then have the AUDACITY to blame the children that you FAILED to raise.
