Moving out and going to school?

I don't know what to do… I'm in the fourth year of a HLW (Civil Service Training) and, to be honest, I've really messed up the year… I had a really hard time adjusting to everyday life after my three-month internship. I loved working, earning my own money, and even living on my own during that time. When I got back to Austria and school started, school was horrible for me. Sitting forever, 40 hours of class, plus homework and studying afterward… It was too much for me, and I simply didn't do it because I don't see the point in sitting down for another two hours after 10 hours of class. Besides, I wanted to drop out the whole time, but everyone advised me against it. (I'm 19.) I wouldn't have done nothing, but I wanted to get credit for 1.5 years of HLW and then continue with a 1.5-year apprenticeship as a restaurant manager, and I would have been done and graduated…

I'm not lazy or stupid, but rather practical. I can't do anything with things I know I'll never need again. So I don't learn them at all.

But as I said, my parents didn't want that, but at the same time, my desire for my own apartment grew ever stronger because my relationship with my parents is getting worse and worse. Now I'm in a pickle… I obviously didn't make it through the school year, and suddenly my mother, who talked me out of my plan for months, started telling me I should drop out and finish my Refa. But now it's too late… Because I've already had my practical exam. I would only be missing one year until I get my Matura, except that I would have to retake the fourth one… I basically have to finish it now, otherwise I would 1) be giving away several qualifications and 2) the exam would have been for nothing. But I can't live with my parents for another two years, and as a student, I can't afford to move out either… I'm not afraid to move out and sue my parents for maintenance, after all, they, among others, put me in this situation. I should never have been allowed to do an apprenticeship because, in their eyes, it's only for idiots… But, as I said, I'm not the learning type. It's a miracle when I finally sit down to study, and it's always been like this. What should I do? We don't have student loans or anything like that in Austria.

Du kannst dir ja eine billige Wohnung suchen und dir die mit Unterhalt, Kindergeld und nebenbei bisschen Arbeiten finanzieren.

I also lived in the countryside and usually had to take the bus to school, which was over 40 minutes. A car isn't financially feasible without a regular job. But with around €1,000 and some extra work during the holidays, you can afford an apartment, depending on the rent.
