Im having bad luck based on my record. I have a misdemeanor for my own child basically ditching school for too many days (contributing to the deliquency of a minor). Now my son is an adult and the courts tell me there is nothing I can do because he is an adult. Im afraid to even apply for jobs (already licensed as an LVN since 2001). any advice from anyone. I was laid off my last job of 10 years. I applied for one job and was denied because of it. I dont know how to clear this up.
