My mom let all her kids go to school while living at home and paying very little towards bills. I really wanted to, but my older siblings convinced me not to. They couldn't drive, so they'd have to drop out, and it's not fair for the younger one to go to school first. But if I wait my turn, they'll be able to help me.
Yeahhhh, my turn never came. I got disillusioned and moved out. I could never afford to go to school now. I don't think any of them ever used their degrees anyway.
Every day I wish I'd told them to shove it, and done what I wanted to do.
Oh yeah also should have fucked that lil fry cook
