As a high school senior, whether currently or you have already graduated, you may have felt as though your worth has always been measured on the unbalanced scale of a grade-point-average. Your single failure, magnified, as your other accomplishments are made minuscule. Now your only choice is to go to college and study something that'll hopefully make you enough money, though it may not even be your passion. Not so. Throughout this book, Deanna will sound the alarm. She will bring awareness to the issues among young adults that aren't being addressed. Instead, today's youth are oppressed as pertinent problems are being suppressed, in the hopes that "things will resolve themselves". She hopes that this book will provide a renewed sense of hope among the young adult community. That it will be a source of restoration, rejuvenation, and reconciliation. For many, it will be a step towards healing. To parents, it may hurt as the articulated thoughts bleed among the pages. She will present raw statistics, as well as various career path options that do not involve the pursuit of a degree. This book is set out to remind youth that they are not obligated to fit into a mold that was created for them before they could even attempt to craft their own.
