Quinn's Guide to Friendship, Dating and Self-Confidence
I am in week two of my job search, and have found job openings, but whether or not they will hire me is a whole new story. With both my boys having ASD, I have always wondered if I have the same. It seems a lot of their challenges have reflected my own upbringing. I never found any school that suited me until I went to Metropolitan Learning Center. It is an alternative school with no grades, lots of hands on field trips, and a very lax atmosphere. They encouraged the enjoyment of learning without harsh critisms or punishments. a monasory (not sure if that is spelled right) learning style, and great teachers. Later after graduating junior college with full honors and a grade point average of 3.7, I found out it was a magnet school. It didn't feel like some magic magnet school, but apparently it did enough for my self esteem to succeed in college. I hope evryone can find their place in this world. God has a plan for me, I just haven't discovered it yet.
Have a great day and a big smile!
