Bad news, not sure if it is my fault. Not sure where to go.

I got some bad news today, I was denied entrance into college without a clear reason. My mother is mad, I've no car, I'm 19 and still not in college. My dad is going to drop me off of insurance which my already struggling mother can't afford. I have no one to go to for a car and I don't have anywhere else to get a job. My mother is mad that I had to wait a year from lack of money, and I am feeling like this is my fault. Maybe it is. Maybe I wasn't good enough, maybe it is bad I am 19 and still unsure of what to do with my life. I need to figure out something soon before something worse happens. Things were already tough mentally and financially, plus I know that I am a burden on my already struggling single mother. I can't even go to a community college since I have no car. I just have no where else to turn. It is too late to apply for this Fall Semester, and I've already gone a year out of school. I'm so pathetic already and behind. I have 9 credit hours from high school, but that is not enough to transfer. I am just lost right now.

Hey Chris. Sorry to hear you're going through tough times. I believe your mom is just mad because she's tired right now... it has nothing to do with you. Being denied entry in college does not mean you'd have nowhere to go in life. What about applying for a job somewhere to save money until next year? Better yet, start your own business. My dad never goes to college until I was born. He started his own business after working as a night guard in some company for several years. He earned his degree at a little over 30 years old. Doesn't make him a failure or anything. If he can, why can't you? Right? x

Talk to your community college about this. They have a lot of help for students who ha e no car/job/home ext... And help them get into college and find places to stay and transportation to school.

And as for health care you should be able to get on a plan with Obama care now.
