jessie,

Yea those kids are in tough situations. The problem for them is if it’s not school. it will be something else the parents try to control. It isn’t an easy situation for sure. However, sometimes you gotta do what ya gotta do. Life is not fair, life is what you make of it by overcoming obsticles in the way. While most here are fortunate to have supporting parents, these kids are not. The parents are their roadblocks to success.

It might mean they take a different road to get where they want to be. The nice thing about going somewhere is there are often several roads to get there. The trip might take a bit longer by going a different road, but hey, maybe the scenery is nicer.

I went on a long senic route to get to where I wanted to go. Along the way, I got married, bought a house and my 1st child was born a month before I graduated.

They can still get to where they want to go, even if they have to walk it. That’s been my point in this topic. The only real person who can tell them “no” is themselves.
