Finishing high school is a good time to think about career paths. Your teacher's been your bro up to now, but that phase of your life is ending soon.
Look for something with a good working environment, high pay, low stress, and solid future prospects. Right now, a field like carpentry fits the bill.

OP here, Thanks for the input. I'm essentially trying to do just that, but instead shape my future with my interests.

It's a confusing time, with a lot of major decisions that you're forced to make with very incomplete information. Find a career that gives you fulfilment and room for future growth, and you're way ahead of the curve.
Hey op got a lot of tension with my father too cept for different reasons, I'm moving out, suggest you do the same, least you got a bro teacher but after highschool find a job and live with someone who won't give you a hard time. Some annon said carpentry , that sound lime a good choice for now.
He knows, he's choosing to ignore it because of fragile male ego.
That's why there's tension, two ends pulling simultaneously.
