Hold on stay in school, Maybe if you quit you may put off getting your GED. Graduate, if you have good grades, stay. You may have a good chance of moving to higher education, which in turn you may get a better position where you work or even a better job somewhere else. Good luck !!!!!! :o

don't depend on a husband when you are still in high school! That would be stupid. what if he grows out of you? you both are still so young, you don't know. don't let him insure your future, make your own that can include him, or not...make is flexible.
the only successful person I know with a GED is my bfs sister, but they were home schooled and she didn't want to go to public school. she is still going to collage and is now in a semi-management at her job.
stay in school and stick it out, or if you get your GED at least go to college!. be an independant person...you never know what the future holds.

Finish school. Hell, we all know school sucks! We all say it. I absolutely hate school. But just finish it. For your future. You don't want to be job hunting at Target and Walmart if you end up losing the job you have now! Finishing high school is important. If I may ask, how old are you? Sorry if it is too personal. We're all like that. Why go to school? I'm never going to use history! Or math! But you will be thought more lowly of. If you plan on having kids in the future, what's going to be convincing enough to keep them in school? Just watch your 16 year old son "I don't want to go to school anymore. I'm dropping out." What are you going to say? Just going to let him drop out? Possibly ruin his future, struggling for money or pilfering? For all you know, he might use this against you! "You never finished school! Why should I?" Do it for your future. For your kids sake.

As long as you complete your degree, do what you want. Of course, some people may hold it against you that you got your diploma in a less-than-traditional way (most people having done their time in a high school). You will have to weigh the pros and cons before you make you final decision.

Stay in school. You get a much better chance of making more money to support your family, and home or whatever. Plus, you can turn that 'good' job into a great one.

A GED is almost as as good as a Diploma.
How close are you?
If you can stay in school.
Today other employers actually want a real diploma!
If it's just another year, stick it out.

Stay in School. You'll have a better future and you never know if you'll get bumped for someone who has a college education. Good luck.

No, you need to get your GED ! What if something would happen to your spouse, will your job support you ? What if you have kids? Wouldn't it be easier to have a GED to get a higher paying job? I wish you the best of luck...
Just stay in school PLEASe...............
