High School Dropouts Options

[MeanBastard]

How can someone not pass highschool? I know two people who dropped out, and I have to wonder how dumb you have to be not to be able to pass H.S. They make it so you can graduate, even if you're a total buffoon. For example, the normal math curriculum includes : Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus, stupid people are allowed to take "Basic Math" and "Math for living" classes where the only requirment is that you can do basic arithmetic. I can only imagine what goes through an employer's head when they see that someone is a highschool dropout--its basically a sign that reads "I'm too stupid to live".

Definition of 'debate' via www.dictionary.com

but anyways... I can see where th5418 is coming from on some of his 'arguements'...

I too think that becoming pregnant at a young age is also 'stupid' (note that I said I think)... but then again, they end up with the consequences of what they did... I've taken note of how many people are saying that if you get pregnant at a young age, they are naive because they weren't thinking... I think that if you don't think before you act, it's stupid.. and yes I know that we're all human and that we all make mistakes... but I know that most of my mistakes were because I wasn't thinking which was pretty stupid of me... let's take for example someone cheating on you... you find out... and you ask your boyfriend/girlfriend why they did what they did... and they reply with.. "I don't know... I wasn't thinking"... wouldn't you think that that was a stupid reason to why they did what they did??
