He's 16? If he has to drop out to support his family then his family is retarded and he probably fits right in

No, that's not even close to the same.

If they get addicted to a heavy drug? Yes, they're retarded. What are their friends holding them down and injecting heroin into their bodies?

Wtf? Who drops out because of emotional trauma? If they do they need to stop being a pussy. I know people who have had both parents killed, have been raped by their parents, anything you can think of, and they're still in school. If something like that happened to someone that should only compel them to stay in school more so that they can get away from the life they have now.

What kind of parents force their kids to drop out? I just point back to my response to the first situation.
I mean, obviously there are exceptions but it's very rare. If it wasn't for rap right now Eminem would be some worthless bum living in a trailor park in Detroit or he would be dead. He got extremely lucky.
