[quote=Anonymous]I'm sure it's super-frustrating to not have well intentioned advice be followed, but your kid is 18+ years old, and you're going to have to accept that at this point, they are going to make their own decisions. Also...a few positives here: 1) your kids had the gumption to apply for 50 internships. maybe they're in glamorous or competitive fields, but most college kids wouldn't try that hard. 2) if you're kid is getting a ton of aid, they're at least presumably not incurring a ton of debt. so if they need grad school at a later date to improve career prospects they can finance that on their own. 3) most important, your kid is healthy, and presumably reasonably happy [/quote]
