[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 724471, member: 21895"] Both my husband and I came from working class non academic families and obtained our degrees and post graduate degrees as adults. I hear you for feeling like a total failure as our son has not even gotten himself through high school. I hope I truly hope that our Difficult Child will be done with high school this year. I hear you there. I truly believe it is a brave new world and academics do not play the grand part that they once did it both social status and job obtainability. I am cautiously hopeful for our son. As truly the balk is in his court and his future is up to him. We will support any positive venture we can. I wish I had a crystal ball and could fast forward 10 years from now. Wouldn’t it be lovely to know weather to continue to push or just throw in the towel. [/QUOTE]
