[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly is the problem? Are their kids using drugs, pregnant and/or getting someone else pregnant?[/quote] Is that how you raise your children? Just stay off the heroin and don't get pregnant at 16, all else is kosher.[/quote] No, but if my kid decides he'd rather move to Colorado and become a ski instructor than go to law school, I'm not going to fight that battle. If he's going to do nothing but bum around out there and never build anything for his future, then he probably was going to do that whether I pushed him through college and beyond or not. But if he needs a little time to find his passion and then will be motivated to pursue higher education (if necessary) or other avenues to reach his goals, then I'm glad I didn't steer him away from a life that would make him happy.[/quote]
