[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My youngest brother turned 17 in the fall, and is (or I should say, is supposed to be) a junior in high school.  Both of my parents’ highest level of education is an associates degree. They have never cared for formal education or academic achievement. My brother has always hated school and gotten terrible grades. He has a history of refusing to attend school. In the school district he’s located in, kids who are homeschooled have the right to play on their local high school’s sports teams and participate in its clubs. Well, in January, they decided to pull him out and filled out the forms for him to be homeschooled. They said the reasoning is so that he can practice sports more. Many of their friends have done similar things, and it’s also become common where they live to repeat 8th grade for sports. The problem is that no schooling is going on. My parents work full-time and my brother just sleeps in, goes to the gym, watches TV and then goes to practice at night. He is not on the path to becoming a D1 college or professional athlete in either of his sports.

What disappoints me is that he isn’t even receiving the level of education that would be necessary to score well on the ASVAB or a community college math & english placement test.

Is there anything I can do about this?[/quote]

Yes move out of the house as soon as possible, get a job and an apartment and support yourself, and get away from these terrible terrible people.

Oh wait duh you want these terrible people to continue to pay for you?

Got it you entitled little brat.[/quote]
