<p>So I don’t really know where to start other than I want to drop out of my community college. </p>
<p>I was forced to go back in the fall of 2011, and I’m still stuck here for various reasons that were out of my control. Neither of my parents have graduated school, and they’re paying for my Associates Degree, which is pretty nice of them I must add. I don’t want anyone thinking I’m taking it for granted. Anyway, I’m basically at a point where I’m just going for the degree. I have the last four classes until I’m finished, but I can’t find the motivation to finish them. (Note: I’ve also had to work to help keep our house and put food on the table because my parents have a spending problem). I’ve already dropped 2/4 classes because I just couldn’t handle it right now. I’m looking to drop one more and take an incomplete for another, then to finish the uncompleted one over the summer and slowly finish the three classes once I get a break. </p>
<p>I just feel that I’m going no where with school, and if I don’t have the motivation to finish right now then why bother? I have more important things to take care of like my family and my own sanity. (For instance, in order of importance as said by my dad… His job comes first, then my moms, brothers school, family issues/problems, family housework, my job, my school, my brothers job.) So making schoolwork a priority is difficult. </p>
<p>Now here comes the kicker… I still haven’t told my parents I’ve dropped two classes. How do I go about telling them I’m not going to finish this semester? I’m afraid of what the outcome may be. They both didn’t finish so I want to throw that back at them but realistically, that’s not an option. </p>
<p>Any suggestions?</p>
