[quote=Anonymous]He is going to be one of a large number of students who does this during this school year, so it won’t be strange or a disaster at all.  You’ve raised a son who is able to make the best of a sh*tty situation and reset something that was bothering him in the midst.  Many kids may feel the same way, churn their parents’ money and drop out.  He’s doing the more productive course.  He most likely would have just shifted to a different 4-year school directly without the pandemic.  Instead he’s taking this time to get some courses done while everything at most universities is online, for less money.  You didn’t fail him at all.  He’s a problem-solver who is proactive.

The only thing I might urge him to do is consider transferring to a local 4-year college instead.  If grad school is a possibility, some may not recognize the community college credits for some prerequisites.  He’s more covered if he completes them at a local 4-year school, and he can accomplish the same goal he is currently seeking. [/quote]
