Let's list what you've "missed" by being denied the experience....

1. Self-important people telling you what and how you should think.

2. Being in huge debt for an education you couldn't use (if you're like most people with AS and have a hard time keeping a good job)...also presumes your parents didn't have the money to send you to school.

3. Having YET ANOTHER environment where you're the oddball who doesn't quite fit in.

Really, you didn't miss that much.

Frankly, once you reach a certain age, lots of schools have discounted or free courses for the elderly, and you don't have to academically quality to be allowed to take the classes.

...For the last part (though I know you mean well... :? ): I'm not " elderly " , I want " credit " courses , I DO wish about/dream about " the college experience " (now I'm tearing up) :cry: , I thought back then " My teenage fun will start ! "... :( :(
It's not like I'm projecting the MTV cliche " fratboy " thing , even a more " intellectual-bookish " --- Aspie :D ! !! !! !! !! !! - sort of thing :( :(

So, you start with one tiny change and hope that can snowball the other way.


Now THAT is good advice ASS-P!

For the love of "any faith here", get a hold of yourself and stop whining on about your issues and do something about it.

If you want a job, I'll give you a job.

However, if you don't deliver - like any other job - I'll fire you.

If you do deliver, I'll obviously reward you!

taddaaa!

What are you going to do with that?

You want to go to college?

I'll send you to college!

You'll start at your local community college, and we'll see how it goes from there.

As far as transcripts go, your state education association will have records - so don't start on about "I don't have my certificates with me".

When you start thinking "But, I'm not qualified to go to community college" - BS dude, you can take a class that doesn't even count for any credit at all.

If you want to go, I'll pay for a class - and you had better pass, or you won't get anymore classes.

Put your mouth where my money is ASS p

Here's one for all you self-righteous, self-entitled, condescending, mean-spirited, hypocritical, bourgeois swine in this thread and you know who you are. At least one person in this group has become tired of your disingenuous "tough love" lectures and your absolute certitudes about "free will":

You are not going to get enough money for college by begging on WP no matter how much you pretend to cry, pout, or threaten suicide. Even if you do get enough money by begging how are you going to pay for housing, transportation, and sundry expenses? If you can not manage to get yourself off the street how are you going to manage keeping up with your studies or other responsibilities? Also by the time you finish your college education you will be comming up on 60 really fast. No one will hire someone who is getting so near retirement age especially with your medical problems. Your better off trying to find a social worker to help point you in the right direction, find somewhere stable to live, clean clothes for job interviews, and a stable job and work hard until you die like all the other people without a college education including myself and my brothers.

I'm going to break down this guy's post.

-I agree that it's too late for college




Why the heck would anyone be content on living a life of working hard till they die...missing out on the finer things in life...while being spit on

That's what the upper hierchy WANTS you to do because it makes thier life easier.



Are your brothers autistic too?

I didnt finish highschool and was abused when i was a kid. maybe i should make a topic about how sorry my life is! also, I'm UGLY.

I never have any food in my house because i cant afford it, My rents too high, Apartments too small, I have to settle for a mini computer because i cant afford a normal sized one!

oh i could go on...

It seems to me that if ASS-P actually wanted any input on how to go back to college his post would relect that, i mean all it is is a bunch of complaining! he doesnt want any help, he wants to gripe! :roll:

No, both of them are NT they have jobs that pay over $35,000.00 year which is not bad since they never went to college and Buffalo is a jobless wasteland. I never made over $20,000.00 at any of my jobs I was lucky to get medical insurance.

College is way out of this ASS-Ps range he needs to get his head screwed on and make realistic goals he can achieve.
