And you've got an amazing story to tell @ArraDreaming .
Unfortunately, I can't say the education system is a one-size-fits-all. There are many that just don't fit in our type of education system, yet these students have incredible potential in their area of interest.
To be honest, I don't think school was for me. I would have learn more as an apprentice. School was like a dark cloud over my head. I don't feel like I started learning until after I finished school.
And @Meowmy , here's your hot choc!

I’m with you @tyme
I spent most of my school days either not there or going in the morning to get my name ticked off and then spent most of the day just walking around the school, riding my bike around the school or just pretty much doing whatever I wanted and no amount of sitting down learning would ever appeal to me, I was quite isolated because of the way I behaved, I remember a teacher saying to another teacher behind my back they thought I couldn’t hear “when some of the kids start to get jobs, he might surprise us” “no I don’t think he’ll make it i just don’t see him doing much” they thought I couldn’t hear jokes on them now

Fruit platter looks divine. Love the star ⭐ watermelon 🍉 @tyme keep up the positivity and I'm sure your project will succeed. Negative thoughts get us nowhere I battle them everyday - they don't get me anywhere.
