While I was in high school I did not look into colleges. I wasn't encouraged nor did I have the means to look at any. No car. No support. Emotionally that is. I didn't graduate high school which is one of the major reasons why I never bothered. My mother dropped out of high school at a very young age and although she tried to complete nursing school in her 40's never succeeded. I suppose that's okay because we all have different paths and shouldn't put the blame on our parents as to why we didn't graduate college. Heck, I don't even know if my father is still alive. I was six when he left us so...there. No need to get into great detail about him because I don't know a lot about him. So going to colleges (even though it scares the heck out of Chelsea) is something that's important to me. And I hope that she will realize how important it is for her to check them out.
