my sister whos 14 has dropped out of skool?

Question

my sisteris only 14 n in yr 8. shes dropped out of skool to work fuul-time. but since she is only 14 they rnt letting her. but she wont go bk to skool. so she just sits at home all day. help

Answer 1

Well she is now too young for any fu time job and if she doesnt go to school she's not going to get very well educated, so she wont be able to get a very good job. Is there anyone or thing that is bothering her a school? She is too young to drop out. She needs someone who understands to talk to her and to figure out her prolems.

Answer 2

Is this of legal age to quit school at 14 years old? I thought that a teen had to be at least, 16 years of age ? Anyways, let your parents know about your sister. Your sister is going to have a very hard life without an education in this day and age ! We live in a technological society. Since knowledge doubles every six months ... your sister will be embarking on the road to becoming homeless. Today, usually, 2 people work in a family and both need a good education to get a decent paying job ... can you just imagine in 10 years what the cost of living will be like? Tell your sister that there are consequences for making wrong choices and that's just how life works. Part time education = part-time job(s) !!!

Answer 3

It seems she is financially motivated, let her know that an education more than pays for itself in the long-term. An unskilled/uneducated employee has few options other than earning an amount close to the minimum wage. Ask her where she sees herself in the future, would she be happy at a low-wage job--without any job security, or benefits?

The following is a direct quote from the first source:

Here are some ways that parents, working with school administrators, counselors, and teachers, can help their children remain in high school:

- Arrange for help with making up missed work, tutoring, placement in a special program, and/or a transfer to another school.
- Help them with personal problems, and/or arrange for professional help.
- Help them schedule work and family obligations so that there is also time to attend school.
- Help them understand that the choices they make — like marrying, becoming parents, falling courses, or behaving badly enough to get suspended — can seriously disrupt their ability to finish school.
- If students do become pregnant or parents, help them find school and social programs that will meet their special needs.
- If all else fails, help them find a GED program and encourage them to stay with it until they get an alternative high school diploma.

Answer 4

Giver her a cardboard box and tell her this is what she'll get to live in without any education when she's a adult.In some states here if your kid doesn't go to school the parent gets to go to jail.

Answer 5

Well!
You said you left home,when you were 15?. Did you continue going to school?. I guess she figures,if you did it,she can do it too!. The apple does'nt fall too far from the tree! (Note:) You spelled "School" wrong! (?)

Answer 6

Where are the parents. What she wants if she is not educated at all. How to help her? Is something wrong.

Answer 7

tell her that until she is old enough to work full time she should stay in school and try to learn something cuz watching tv all day isn't all that fun.
