[QUOTE="Nandina, post: 761727, member: 23742"] Fifi, I checked again and it looks like I had your daughter’s age wrong. She’s 18? I sure didn’t know what I wanted to do when I was that age. I think a lot of kids that young go to college not necessarily because they want to, but because that’s what mom and dad expect of them. For some kids it works out, other kids struggle. I had one of each and then my difficult child who wanted nothing at all to do with college. Fine with me. We won’t waste our money on him. But we do insist that he at least be gainfully employed until he (hopefully) figures it out. He is a work in progress and at 21 still has many challenges ahead and has taken many wrong turns in life—much more than your daughter or my other two. But I remain hopeful. Your daughter is so young. There is still plenty of time for her. Best wishes to you. [/QUOTE]
