I did great in high school, and had even the option to skip a year. I really wanted to graduate early but I knew once I did my mom would of been on top of me and wouldn't give me time to decide on what to do on the next stage of my life.
They want me to make the decision instantly, I don't get time to think and plan things out. It's always has to be an instant decision which I know from experience ends up in a disaster.
So my options the moment I graduated immediately get a job, immediately go to college, or immediately enlist in the military.
I don't have everything figured out, and I need time to do so.
I try having an intelligent conversation with them and they are unable to have one with me.
My parents didn't go to college, and had a very low quality of education (They are both immigrants). At age 16 my intelligence and education has surpassed that of my parents.
