It would be great. But we can't really keep kids if they don't want to be there. They may start to rebel more, runaway, or parents will push them away more. It should stay at 16. It would help lower the dropout rate, but we might be forcing kids to do stuff.

yeah, 18 or older would be a great age for kids to drop out of high school, because they will already be graduated. good idea. you really should implement this plan as soon as possible.

yeah, a lot of kids stick in hs through 17, and drop out... which unfortunately is their jr year, and they'd only need one more to graduate. The counter is those kids wouldn't graduate, cos they're too dumb to drop out as soon as they could anyway.
why do I feel like I'm doing someone's homework...
