High School Dropouts

 Why is the world so hung up on the fact that they believe every kid that drops out of highschool is involved in drugs, some sort of criminal violence, or bored with school. I mean seriously do you really think that we drop out because we look forward to having a non-successful future? Im 16, and I had no choice but to drop out. Most families can't afford to send their kids to school. Even public school. I know a few drop outs including myself that we try to look up online courses so we dont fall behind in case we ever get the chance to return to school. but even then they dont allow you. you have to have your GED or diploma. its a bunch of BS personally. I get judged along with many others because of stuff I can't control. It shouldnt be like this.
