Most teens should attain a 2 year head start in college, simply because they can, legally, drop out and get their highschool-equivalent diploma at 16 (any considered blame should be placed on you, the
adult voter). Side effects include the available play time for addicting games, like AH, to become restricted.
To all fellow kids with natural curiosity and a discipline to study and work, I would reccomend this route if you find that your school takes to long to teach a subject and when higher-level courses are not available, and would highly roccemend it if they "place" you in a mediocre course.
The damned administrators of US schooling think they know the world of learning down to every fundamental rule, but when in reality, a lot of kids are leaving school with nothing valuable in their minds; if anything they leave with the thought of school, essentially learning, as boring, and as we all know, learning is anything but!
A fine example of an adverse reaction from structured learning in U.S. schools: "I didn't learn in the 8th grade, but they don't, it's just the same BS over and over again. You can learn more from watching an hour of the history or science channel than you can in 3 years at hi school." In the minds of many young American's, and some older, there lies a conception of learning that, ironically, contradicts most thoughts made from natural curiosity, which is the basic inspiration for ALL learning! Therefore, you have a lot of confused kids who run off to different religions, groups, and habits to save themsleves from a consequently amassed confusion: depression.
As for AH...
We invest our time and energy into this game, and thus become damn good virtual pilots, because we see our options of earned respect, from a society of "wiser" beings (which is relatively as valid a goal to having a low score), as limited. Although, with harassment caused by adults who think annoyance is genetically in our nature, and a lack of self-esteem thereof, this seemingly unnatainable goal becomes more apparent and thus we begin our search for different ways to enjoy our existance in a peaceful manner, which is why most discovered havens of youth can be found throughout the Dueling Arena.
Please treat us nicely, it's not our fault we are annoying and refuse to submit ourselves to your ear's pleasing of unnatural voice-deepening hormones.
Thank you and good day.
