    I dropped out and got my GED and then went to college. No one has ever seemed to care in the least. If they did they didn’t say. I think anyone who would look down on her for that would be extremely narrow minded and probably not very good to work for anyway.

    I’m currently getting my GED now. People should NEVER look down on any one getting their GED. They should be PROUD that they are doing something for themselves. As many people that have dropped out of high school and became NOTHING, she is on the right track. You should just encourage her. Tell her that she CAN do it. When she talks about how she’s going to fail, tell her, ‘You are smart, you will pass this test with flying colors!’ Just remember to encourage your friend. Don’t let her give up, ever. Be proud of her. Good luck.
