[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Me? None. I dropped out of college and have a very high HHI so I don’t push at all. They can make their own path. [/quote]

Not PP, but I am curious too. My DD is finishing her freshman year and does not want to back. Had roommate issues; never found a core group; decided her selected major is not what she wants to do; is now undecided.

I don’t want to pressure her but not sure what the options are other than get a low wage job while she figures it out. Are there any counselors who can help with this situation?[/quote]

That is a real shame. This is why people join greek life. I know people on this board hate it but it gives you a large group of people to get to know on a much closer level. My DD is no longer friends with anyone who she was friends with in her freshman year, except those in her sorority. She was just lamenting to me the other day that she wants to go to a mixer than her sorority was having with a fraternity and none of her "friend group" wanted to go. I said you have 150 other friends in that sorority, just go and have fun. And she did.  Whenever I hear someone say they "never found their group" I am reminded how thankful I am that I and actually both my kids rushed. if not for those people, our world of friends would have been very very small.

I wish her the best of luck. Another way to make a group of friends is in clubs and sports, which I'm sure you know. Hopefully she will give those a chance.[/quote]
