Hasn’t she signed up for GED classes like 10 times already? What she really needs is one to one tutoring because the classes don’t seem to help her

Honestly, my daughter has a freaking genius level iq and can do crazy math equations in her head that I cant even figure out how to do with a calculator. Months ago I almost felt like sending her a message on social media and offering for my daughter to help her learn math. For free. Because that girl needs an opportunity to be able to learn an actual job that will allow her to earn a living wage and care for her kids. It breaks my heart to see people struggle to get out of these kinds of holes and just can't win. Especially when those people are single parents. I've been there before in other life situations. It sucks. But I live half a country away from her and I'm sure she would have blocked me for even offering help. So I never did it. But I was so tempted. LOL.
Unfortunately, genius doesn't help with tutoring. My brother is like that with math, and I am well, not. Teachers would ask if I was sure he was my brother. So when I was flunking algebra for the second time, my parents had him tutor me. Problem was, it was so easy for him, that he couldn't wrap his brain around me not understanding it. It was beyond him that it wouldn't make sense. We had to get someone who knew how to teach to help me.
But you're right-- she probably would have blocked you. Just for suggesting the help.
Being smart and being a tutor is so ooooo different. Just because I have a degree that doesn't mean I will explain what I find second nature. I am an English tutor and trying to make a student understand was and is the hardest part of English. You learn with them. Not all can teach others. No matter how "smart" you are. Imho that is.

I also thought about messaging her and offering help, but I figured she’d just call me a hater and block me since she can’t even take constructive criticism. Those poor kids.
The practice test had a section where you could see where you went wrong, but I assume you have to pay something for the info. At this point, why isn't she just paying for access so she'd know which area she needs help with. Is she that broke?

She posted pics of the things i think you are talking about... bullet points with "things you should work on" so i do think she knows what she needs help with, she just seems unable or unwilling to find REAL help.
She has to accept and bluntly realize she doesn't know it all. She needs to learn to get the GED. All us people do it the same way Tay..... Really you can't grasp life can you? You weren't born talking, walking, eating. This is life.... I don't even know how you help someone with living......

Exactly. There’s truly no shame in her not understanding things - we’re not born with encyclopaedias in our heads. We all start at the bottom and work our way up. The problem is that she refuses to admit she’s stuck at the bottom, and put in the effort to get better at things
You know what I just realized. All these youtube teen moms always said they wanted to become this or that and go back to school after a few months but all they did was pop out more babies (sometimes from more men) and become more trashy every time. That's sad. If they all stopped after the supposed first oopsie baby and actually went back to school they would be doing okay now.

That is because having a child is a territory they know. They are actually afraid to do something new. They are afraid to change or they purely can't. After the first child everything is familiar.
Oh, that's good, I didn't see that. I think she has the potential to do a lot better for herself now that Chuckie has definitely moved on. I hope she does move forward with education. I hope she doesn't stop if she gets her GED. That's good, but she could do better for her kids. I hope she passes this time.

Also about the GED. She will only study for like a week max before the test. As soon as she fails, she should study constantly until she is able to text again. I think at this point she is just hoping to get lucky and pass.

Something that i picked up from that caption..
"He helps with MY THE kids at night.." looks like she went back to correct saying "my kids" and changed it to "the kids" I know there was speculation that Brian might be Amity's dad, and this post furthers that to me.. First, what obligation does he have to watch these random kids of an ex girl friend while she goes and works at the strip club? Secondly, if she changed it from my kids to the kids, makes me think she didn't want to hurt his feelings by saying they were only her kids.. It's pure speculation for sure, but i just think it's kinda interesting.

I don't believe Alesana typed that UNLESS using speech to text BUT her speech isn't that clear so.
Brian has no obligation to babysit her kids. He does it purely because he wants to..... He has some issues for sure. But I doubt during that time Tayler would leave another male to impregnate her. She really wishes it was Brian's child but it isn't. She would shove that in our faces and comparing him to Chuckie. She wouldn't just leave it be. It isn't her norm as t all.

Idk if she would be bragging about amity being brian's or not.. shes ALWAYS been super stuck on the point that all her kids are "full blooded siblings" like it's some sort of achievement. Chuckie doesn't pay child support (i know that could be bc of the TPO also) and Brian was there for her birth..... just something that makes me think..
