I hate the way I was raised and I think my parents set me up for failure. I turned 18 around 6 months ago. I was homeschooled illegally, meaning that I was never registered to any district and I did not provide documentation of my schoolwork. This meant that I couldn’t participate in things such as sports, clubs, dances, or anything involved with the district. I had to watch other kids do all these things and have fun. Even worse, I wasn’t allowed to tell anyone that I was raised like this. My parents told me this made me “better” than other kids but the truth is they’re just fucking narcissists. I had no social skills whatsoever and I only started making my first friends when I was 17, but my parents didn’t give a fuck. I don’t even have a driver’s license because my parents never bothered to teach me. I can’t even have a graduation, since I’m not part of any district I have to get a GED to be high school level equivalent. And I’ve always had dreams of going to college but my parents discouraged it from the start and made it clear that they’d never support me if I attempted to apply. I’ve had such a meaningless adolescence with nothing worth remembering and I don’t see a future for myself. I will never forgive my parents for doing this. I don’t know how to go about this.
