16-year-old drops out of school to play Guitar Hero

He's doing something he loves. That's alright in my book.

 

Yeah...you're so right...let him play whatever he wants on your account

Crazy kids nowadays...with no guidance they leave everything and loose their chance in life...

 

That iamchris4life gy manages to do it, why can't anyone else?

except we need to wait for the new guitar hero first.

 

its not that crazy
if you read it closely, he's still getting an education and just pursuing something that he enjoys doing. Even if guitar hero blows over, he can still become a professional gamer. i know tons of sites that hire them to review games, so that's a possibility for him.

 

what a fruitcake

 

Maybe he's playing it to learn all about games structure, and he wants to be a game programmer in the future

 

i think he would better work for the gaming company as a beta tester. that way he can earn a steady money i think.

 

Wow, the kid is now being homeschooled, doing better in his studies, and has a chance to travel and earn money. Why would the media demonize these parents who made a choice to help their kid develop his talents? The school was not a success for him. Big surprise. He wasn't doing well there, was not well liked, and now he has an opportunity to develop his skills. Although unconventional, this is not a bad option. Many people think that schools are wonderful...and I am sure they are...for those sheeple that are just like the others...I would rather have other options, and I am glad his parents had the insight to defy convention and do what was appropriate for their child. I wish them well.

 

Yeah I hate this cooker cutter life... Go to school , study study and study , Go to college , study , study and study , Get a job, L@ck your boss @ss the whole day

 

LOL, Good luck to the kid. Guitar hero is a great game, but to drop in the school just to play it. I will just recommend you to play Cabal online. It's a great game to play.
