[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Things are going to be rough for these kids for a while, I think. Encouraging my kid to study the classics, history, to read great books, seek beauty. Can’t control the world out there, but a person can control the contents of their mind and the quality of their attention.

Some Viktor Frankl is probably in order right about now. [/quote]

I love this so much.  My DC is freshman and just decided they wanted to major in English.  In the short time they have been away at their SLAC ([b]please hold the snark - you know who you are)[/b] they have become so passionate about learning. Learning in general.  With AI, who knows what the future holds for many of our kids. Our kids’ future is not how ours looked at their age. All my friends, regardless of major, had a jobs before or within two months of graduation. All majors - even those deemed useless by many on this site. We are now in a very different time. Oh, and before you attack the English major, I majored in English and went on to get an MBA at a top 10 business school. I treasure my undergraduate education in the humanities to this day and it has served me well. Anyway, I loved the sentiments of the PP.  Well said.[/quote]
