[quote=Anonymous]I do have a few teacher friends (I'm also a teacher) who fit in this category.  I had noticed it last year.   Several teacher friends have young adult children who never went to college.  The moms didn't feel they would benefit, kids didn't have intellectual drive and parents didn't want to spend  the money on college.  I remarked on it because the parents were in the education field and it seemed odd to me that they wouldn't push their kids to go to some kind of higher education.

Thinking back, these kids all are boys.  They live at home, work low level jobs at fast food places or restaurants.  Some of them drive but most don't.  I was telling one friend she really should be charing her son market rent for sharing a room in a house, but she doesn't want to take away his motivation for working (being able to spend more money I guess on things he likes.) . These kids all did OK in school -- not great but they certainly have the ability to go to college or work harder, just aren't motivated.[/quote]
