OK I feel like a retard and failure at everything. I'm nearly 17 and never even tried for my driving permit while everyone else has at my age. I've never had one job interview either and a while ago, I didn't want to ever grow up or get a job. But now I've moved on from that. All the other girls at school have after-school jobs (not after-school clubs and activities, those are for 6th-graders) and I feel totally left-out! I live with mental disabilities that affect my life and communication skills, so that definitely makes it harder. I've told my dad how I feel about this and he almost always says I'm not ready for that stuff yet. I don't fucking care what he thinks, he always puts me down and says I have the maturity of a 6-year-old child! Sorry if I'm whining too much, I guess I cannot help it. I just really want to grow up and stop living in the past. I'm sick of being told I'm not ready to start for my driving permit or get a job that interests me. This makes no sense to me, my dad's also telling me I have to give new things a try and I can do anything I'd like if I keep trying. I feel like a retarded kindergarten student   Please help thanxx

they have this plant
then you take it,break it down
then you get a cigar,
then you take the tabbaco out,
then you put it the cigar,
then you roll it back up
then you light it,
then you inhale it multiple times till you feel slow and relax,
then you sit down and relax  
then you wont know what depressed is

no bullshit :)

You should do what you think is right,

if your dad doesn't support you thats one thing,

but it shouldn't stop you from your acheiving.

Tell him you're GOING to try for your permit,

dont make it a question or suggeustion;

and its good that you've decided to grow up,

shows maturity, the kind your father is blind to.

why don't you ask your dad to drive you some places to apply for jobs and then after he has to take you and pick you up for a few weeks he will be all about getting you a driving permit
