May 8, 2014, scheduled orientation at Central Ohio Technical College for Breonna Hayes, not attended.

Well I give up.  I've paid 3 different college application fees for Breonna and it's obvious she does not want to attend.   Remember the first time we met? She was 14, and she said she was interested in law.   

It's been a long process of encouraging continuing education.   For the past four years my hopes for Breonna have gone from an actual course in education which would lead to a career, to hope against hope that she would only attend only so that she could "orient" herself among other people besides her family.   ANYONE besides her family.   

My thought process has gone from:

    Decide what you want to do and set a course of education
to 

     Start school with just the basics.  You have financial aid for full time classes, so just get started and see how it works out.

to   
     Enroll and get started.  If you miss some classes, fail classes, whatever.  Just get there and meet some actual people.

to
    Screw the financial aid!  Just meet some real people who are not of your family.

ok then:    Just attend orientation!!!

Who does Breonna interact with through her day:   Her mother, Her father, sisters and brothers, and once in a while her sisters neighbor Amber.   Really?   What do we have here:

Drama, drama and more drama.

What is FAIL?
FAIL is "Suck"
