Stay in School PSA. {NSFW}

Warning: Adult.

  • Does this video go too far? Yes. That’s why teenagers will actually pay attention to it.
  • I find it equal parts disgusting and fun, funny. A friend of mine is a single mom who’s struggling to get her middle daughter to attend school–she’s nearly at a drop out point. While this video doesn’t address anything seriously, it does so in a way that would allow them to connect and have a serious conversation about the young lady’s future, or lack thereof. 

    So I guess it’s in that spirit that I share this—I may not be a teen, thankfully, anymore, but I remember what I would listen to and enjoy, and what I wouldn’t. Pretty much anything that you and I and other adults here would find palatable is, you know…boring for many teens.

Ironically, not suitable for children. But, then, neither is skipping school..!

An education has been shown to be the greatest difference between both happiness and lack thereof, and in income and poverty. Are you privileged enough to have access to school? Use it.
