[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gap years are for losers. The last thing this generation needs is another socially acceptable excuse to spend one more year living on Mommy and Daddy's dime. When my old man decided it was time for me to ride on two wheels, he took the training wheels off my bike, gave me a shove, and said, "Ride or wreck!" If more parents took that attitude with their 18-year-olds with “maturity issues,” maybe this trend toward neverending adolescence would start to reverse itself.[/quote] I will not say your comment does not have a point for some people, but your problem is that you view all people in such a uniformity where one size fits all. Each person is so vastly different and you can't judge what's best for each of them. If they think a gap year is good for them, it is good for them. Plenty of successful people did that. [/quote]
