A misdemeanor is the designation of the severity of the charge or judgment against you, not whether or not you are convicted. Misdemeanors are minor and felonies are major. You are charged with one, and then you either win or lose the case and only then, if you lose, is there a conviction. The conviction on a misdemeanor is not as serious as a conviction of a felony.

Any criminal charges you got before you were 18 will not be accessible to the public after your 18th birthday. Your adult criminal record is another thing however. All criminal charges AFTER your 18th birthday will appear. it could depend on how serious the misdemeanor offense was but, usually, you probably would not be denied entrance to college or the military based on that fact alone.
How long does a drug conviction stay on record?
Forever, if a "legal" adult (depending on the state, NC if you are a second older than the age of 16, you are no longer considered a juvenile on your criminal record). It is only a myth that convictions go away on your criminal record. Any and everything you are ever charged with will stay on your criminal record, even if found not guilty or if the charge is dismissed. It will state so on your criminal record. Let's say you are charged and arrested for misdemeanor larceny and you go to court, the judge tells you to do 30 hours of community service and pay a fine, then your charge will be dismissed. Your criminal record will still state the offense date, type of offense and dismissed. Or if you take it to trial and some how you "beat" this charge your criminal record will still state the offense date, type of offense and not guilty. The only thing that can be counted against you are offenses you are found guilty of. Although they will always be on your criminal record!

Can you lose your teaching job with a misdemeanor?
It is possible to lose a teaching job due to a misdemeanor, as school districts may have policies that require teachers to maintain a certain level of professional conduct. The impact of a misdemeanor on a teaching job may vary depending on the nature of the offense and the specific policies of the school district.
Can a convicted felon own realestate?

What is guilt and innocence?
In criminal law, "guilt" is being found to be involved in the commission of an offense. "Innocence" is not having been involved in any offense. CAUTION: The terms "innocent" and "not guilty" are NOT synonymous - do NOT mean the same thing - and do not have the same meaning under the law.
You have 2 misdemeanor drug possession charges in Florida however you were able to take pretrial intervention for both and was never convicted are you eligible to join the air force?
I believe that you should be able to. Best thing to do is to be 'up-front' and ask the recruiter yourself. Don't try to hide this information, because when the recruiter pulls your criminal record it's going to show up there anyway.
Does a person on felony parole have to report being with someone on misdemeanor supervised probation?
You have to report only one thing when you meet with your PO once per month (or however often prescribed), that would be what ever your parole stipulations outline.One of your stipulations will be that you may not have contact with any other convicted felon. A supervised misdemeanor is not a felon.What your PO does not know did not happen. This is not an advertisement for criminal activity, as your PO has ways of finding out a lot of information about you. The world is a snitch after all. The only thing stipulated in parole conditions on a consistent basis that you must report, and should never try to hide, is contact with Law Enforcement.
What is a cats offense?

How do you explain misdemeanor on a job application?
The best way is to just be honest about your past. Although your past criminal history might give an employer some pause, you should always add a letter of explanation to your application and mention that you would like to discuss this in person. Explain that you have taken responsibility for your actions and what you have learned from them. Be sure to add what you have done to better yourself since your offense, like going to school, job training etc. The one thing you do not want to do is deny an offense or put the blame on someone else. Practice what you will say when you are asked about your criminal history. Be prepared.
