I want to study the course material at a college which offers the level 3 apprenticeship, but then I also have to apply to a garage, right? which one do I do first: apply to the college or the employer ? and would I be a good candidate for the job if I don’t have any car related experience (only a driver’s license), but all my GCSEs are grades 9-8, thank you !
wanted to share this with everyone :>
I’m 17F. they want be to apply for uni but I don’t want to go. but they restricted access to my UCAS account, and restricted websites that let me explore job openings. I want to be a car mechanic because it’s stable enough and I want to move out ASAP. but they want me to be a pharmacist. I don’t even want to continue A levels.
I have no idea what to do. I just want to leave but they have control over my whole future. I am homeschooled so there is no teacher to help me. I am not allowed a job, not allowed to volunteer, can’t walk freely around the neighbourhood because I am a girl.
sorry for asking this here but my internet resources are very limited at the moment.
I’m trying to figure out how to add custom patches on a denim jeans jacket I’ve had for a while. I understand how to create patches but I struggle to sew them onto a jacket. I don’t have a sewing machine but I do have an iron. Any kind of help would be very much appreciated, thank you! the patches are made of fabric.
so I am entering my last year of high school in september. I have been homeschooled since year 2 (English system). I have an opportunity to go to a public high school for year 13, and I’m not sure if it’s a good idea, because Im worried I won’t get along with many people. But on the other hand I’ll be out the house a lot which is cool.
just wanted to know what everyone’s opinion is on this : )
I am 16 turning 17 soon and I’ve been homeschooled since Year 2 (england system). I have very fond memories of going to a public school in nursery, foundation and year 1, and they are the best days of my life. other than that, I feel like my entire childhood and teenage hood has been thrown out of the window. I never had a friend group in my life, if I’m in a situation when people are talking I am the last one people resort to, all my summers I’ve spent cooped up in my room online or talking to myself.
Since year 5 I have tried convincing my parents to let me go to school, but they never did. when my older brother was allowed to go I wasn’t. I did get an opportunity to go mid year 12. I won’t go into detail but my mom made a very disgusting lie about me, and convinced my family I did something I should not have done (which I didn’t do) with no proof. so I am stuck still.
in September i will completly self study my final year of high school. my final year of high school and i am completely alone with no life, no matter how hard I try to volunteer, get a job, go out, my parents do not let me. they have access to almost everything I have.
i had hoped since year 7 that I can go to a far university since my grades are good enough, but last week my parents dropped the bombshell that they essentially lied to me about letting me go and gave me 4 crappy universities that I hate to choose from. even though I repeatedly told them that I would never apply to those, and they were seemingly chill with that, they complete flipped on me and I need to start my application in a few weeks. I don’t think I even want to go to uni anymore, I just want to move out and be alone. But they won’t let me do an apprentechi, they won’t even let me take a gap year, because they have access to my application account and can put in whatever options they like and accept or reject any offers and I have no control over what happens to me.
ikve been lied to my whole life and I‘m so fucking angry at my family for lying to me. My brother lives in an accommodation but my mom says he’s only allowed because he is a man and I am not.
i have no idea what to do and I feel so defeated
So I am 16, turning 17 in a few months, and am really thinking of university. However knowing my parents they will be breathing down my throat throughout all of it.
For backstory: I have been homeschooled by my mother since year 2. I mean literally it was just me in my room and my mom teaching me the curriculum (along with my older brother, but he went to a school later, I will talk about that soon). Don’t get me wrong, she was a good teacher when it came to academics, but she had a VERY short fuse when it came to me not understanding a topic and would often yell at me for getting answers wrong. I expressed my desire to return to a regular school but I was completely dismissed, This continued until I was in Year 9, when my mom enrolled me into a religious online school until Year 11, and a regular online school in year 12 (which I just finished).
throughout all of this, I was not allowed to make any friends. I had no friends during primary school, at middles school my best friend was a spider I named Klara, and during online school, my mother would press her ears on the door of my room to listen to my conversations, telling what and what not to say. I have never said anything inappropriate or alarming enough for her to do that reasonably. She would always tell me that there were no such thing as friends (she doesn’t have any and only speaks to close family) and that everyone who is being nice to me is most probably fake. Becuase of this , she has told me not to make any friends, not to tell anyone where I am from, and not to talk about my hobbies in case they get jealous of me, her words not mine. My brother was allowed to talk to people in his school and play with his friends, but I wasn’t . I have never had a friend before, only a few family friends I met for a total of 2 days.
I am also not allowed to go outside without being chaperoned by a family member (I am the youngest)
I got my phone when I started year 12 and she would frequently go through it and block contacts I did not want blocked (just because me and that contact fought verbally for a bit). She recently took my phone in January and blocked all websites on my iPad (I found a way around, that’s how I’m typing this) because a gay person was on my feed and I had a vpn (which I was not using at all and thought it had a paywall, I forgot to remove the extension), which she didn’t like becuase she claimed I was going on ‘websites’, I still don’t know what she meant by this. the only websites I use incognito are tumblr and Pinterest becuase I am not allowed social media.
My parents installed a camera in my brothers uni dorm (it is allowed there) and ask to see his time table, but I am afraid that, even if I go to a far away city, the restrictions will be much worse for me as usual (keep in mind my brother did not have to deal with this at all, I remember clearly).
I am planning on speaking to my mom and setting boundaries, but I am scared she will not take it well. I do not want to do an apprentechip, but I also cannot handle that kind of surveillance I will get if I go to uni. what should I do?
