During the last few years of high school I was home schooled.
I was getting so tired of school and being bullied as well that I eventually convinced my parents to take me out of regular school and then home school me.
Although I never really did much work for my home schooling which was not really a problem.
I went to work for my dad's business and didn't need a diploma or GED and I never cared about having a good career.
Now I work for myself and still don't need the diploma.
My teachers always told me that I would not get by in life without a diploma but I've proved them wrong and I'm doing well.
I also hire some people that don't have diplomas or GED's as all I care about is if they can do the job and they are great workers.
