My sob only child, took his A level, in sport physio therapy, and with pass in English which he brill, takes after his late mom, not a think prat like me, I was only brewery worker , but did it 25 years, before left looked back.i never wanted my son to be like me and he not, just like his late mom. He passed got could marks, but was very very hard to get football clubs, he did physio for villa, 1st brom women football, not enough money, did lot private stuff. Where we lived lot people used him.but still gard to make proper 45 hours week work. So he passed his test class 2 lorry driving oil round farms, factory, houses, making OK money . The reason I've wrote this , because sometimes with the kids hard work trying to get passes in there grades etc, it still hard to get the proper work they tried to pass for hope she gets good result's My granddaughter wants to be a children's social worker though like a lot of 16 year olds she might change her mind after doing her A levels next. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
