[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good luck everyone. The situation we face is that my son is probably sort of on the border line of being college material. He is in 9th grade so the coming years will tell if he will go to college. It is hard - don't know whether to encourage him to think in terms of college or not.[/quote] I would give him a chance and take a few community college classes and fine out. Why rule it out. He may do better in college than high school (I did much better) as he may find the classes more interesting. Othwerise, I would steer him to plumbing or electrician as they seem to make decent money and the good ones are in high demand.[/quote]
