Actor Christian Slater was an adult when he decided to go back to finish his high school education ��� so that he could be more of a role model to his kids. The ���Broken Arrow��� star admits he never took his education very seriously when he was younger and knew it was high time to return to the classroom when he became a father. "High school was not something that I remotely took seriously," the New York Post quoted him, as telling Parade magazine in an interview.
"And now I've got these kids, so it's like . . . what am I going to do?" "I had to go to a high school classroom with a bunch of kids getting their GED [General Education Development diploma] . . . it ended up that I squeaked by," he added.
