[quote=Anonymous]What does he like to do? I'd be really tempted to start with what makes him happy and plays to his strengths. Then think of jobs that fit, then strategize about how to get there from here (which may or may not involve college -- or a trade school). If he doesn't know what he likes, try exposing him to things you think he might like. I have non college grad friends and family who do carpentry, firefighting, electrical work and financial services. And i see lots of people drawn to culinary careers. You might also think about how he likes to learn -- hands-on, one-on-one/apprenticeship, etc.[/quote]
