[quote=Anonymous]Before I read that she'd dropped out of college, I was a little surprised that you would charge your daughter any amount of rent. But, yes, if she doesn't have a college degree, then she is in for financial difficulties her entire life (assuming you aren't loaded), and this is a very gentle way to try to wake her up to how hard life will become if she doesn't develop discipline and ambition, or go back and finish her degree. Honestly, if I were you, I'd encourage her to apply to undergrad programs in European countries (or Canada). That way, while pursuing her degree, she can at least be situated to stay on and apply for permanent residency in a country that offers a social safety net to its citizens. Being degree-less is slightly less scary in nations where you don't have to fund your own health care and where public housing is actually widely distributed.[/quote]
