What advice can you give a kid who wants to leave school and is trying to convince his or her parents that it is a good idea?
I think that if you want to get out of school, it's best to not just focus on how bad school is for you but focus on all the positive things that will happen if you are out of school; all the good things that you will accomplish if you are not in an institutionalized educational setting.
