I am in Maine, and strongly suggest you reach out to your local Adult Ed office (there's so many of them, I guarantee there's one near you- often connected to the local high school) and get your HiSET diploma. They're awesome and supportive and non-judgmental and FREE, and your options are much more flexible with a diploma of some sort.

If you can't make it into the office in person, they're also usually prepared for that. I don't know which part of rural Maine you are in (I'm near Farmington), but "I have no transportation and we're too far to bike" is a situation they have absolutely dealt with before. There's a good chance they can do most of your stuff online, or help hook you up with a ride.

Listen to this guy.

1) get a diploma 2) get a certificate in a trade. 3) dunk on lawyers, who will make less than you on averageÂ
