I live with my aunt and uncle in Utah. I hate my job, I have no friends. The only thing going for me is that I am going to college in Colorado this fall. I miss my mom, brother, and sister. And my friends back home. They're in Michigan. I moved to Utah to get away from some problems I was having. I feel much better now. Should I quit my job and go home? I don't really need a job. I am going to college for free(scholorships and financial aid). I really miss my family and the schedule that I work on is making it impossible to make any friends. Any thoughts are well appreciated. Thanks.

Suck it up… You have a FREE RIDE for college? You WHINEY LITTLE BRAT…
Go to school.. Get an EDUCATION and make some new friends in Colorado… Don’t you think that once you go home the problems may arise again? Could they? People do NOT move out of state because they had some MINOR problems. You had a major issue somewhere back home.
Sure move back home if you grew up and probably won’t get into trouble again. But history repeats itself. You know this is the truth…
Basically your college is in Colorado and you’re in Utah. What is keeping you in Utah??? Do your parents and siblings WANT you back home before starting school?

As a parent myself of three teenagers ask yourself this question: What is it that you ran away from in the first place?
More than likely that problem is still there unless you have faced it head on and conquered it.
I also grew up in Michigan and now live in Maryland, the economy is not the greatest at the moment; I have Friends who have degrees and can not find a job.
My suggestion is to call home more often and maybe fly home when you can.
Go to school and get your degree.
You left home and now you want to quit your job and it seems that you have a hard time finishing things. Stop running and stand up to your fears and it will make life easier when you do.
good luck.

I would definitely go back home. You probably can transfer your free scholorships and financial aid to a college near your real home. If you don't like your job, you haven't been able to cultivate friendships, then the only thing for you is to go back home. We all need family and friends to keep us socialized and happy...that is part of being human.. People need people. That is part of the human spirit. Go home and find a new job, transfer to a nice college, and enjoy your family and friends again. I am sure your parents and family will be so happy to see you home again. I wish you well.

going home to Michigan would be a mistake.
you made a fresh start for a reason, and it's very possible that your family need this time-out as much as you do.
keep working, give some money to your aunt and uncle, and send some to your mom.
you will have plenty of opportunity to make friends in college.

Put your 2 weeks in first and make sure you have money saved up for when you decide to go back home . I would go home but make sure you have money saved up for yourself so you don't depend on parent to take care of you . Then think about getting a part time job when you get home . You also can talk to the company your at to see if you can transfer jobs to the place your going to if they have the same company , that would be a smart idea so your parents don't think your coming to live off them . Good Luck !!!!

I think the best thing you can do is stick it out for a while. It seems you want to leave when you are unhappy. What makes you think the location has anything to do with it? I think you should finish up college first - prove to everyone you can complete something you started before you go crawling back. Problems are going to follow you no matter where you go if you don't figure out how to deal with them. Who exactly is going to pay for you to move again?

You should be thankful for every opportunity you have because not all people have experienced like that...and there are really times that we will really miss your family but you also have to think that's for your future and for your own good. It's not only you who can benefit but your family too...you should not miss every opportunity because it will only knock once and you should be thankful for that...
And if you will miss your fmaily try thinking of how proud they are of what you achieved...ok...good luck...try diverting your attention to other things try sports or if your work entails a lot of your time why not surfing the net you can meet new friends or night life...

You ran away from problems now you wanna go back you have to ask yourself if the problems will be there when you go back you can't always run away from things its best just to confront them head on, God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference The Serenity Pray think about it.

Move to where the school is, Colorado, and get a job there until school starts.

I think you should go home. Your just homesick and i know a lot of people who are... maybe stay there a while and go back to finish ur education i mean the scholarship isnt going to make you happier of your homesick... so go home for a few day/weeks/months and if your heart tells you to remain there then stay .. and if you want to finish your education then go back l8r
