[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not a "kid" it's a 22 or 23 year old unemployed man with an elite UVA bachelor's degree. [b]Meanwhile, our Facebook feed right now is loaded with dozens of middle class kids of frankly average intellect graduating from low tier degree mills with job offers in Washington, Charlotte, Houston, Austin, Nashville, and Atlanta[/b]. Meaning they not only had great internships last summer, they parlayed them into job offers, and they have everything lined up to make a big move away from home. While OP's kid has done literally nothing. To pretend this is normal or pretend it's not a big deal is a lie and a total disservice to parents going through similar.[/quote]

This is not a slight on those kids, I can actually verify they were mere middle and lower pack kids at our children's high school. And I see no mention of high honors in their graduation posts. And it's noteworthy that they attended low tier colleges because those colleges have far less resources than UVA and virtually zero name recognition or status cachet. And yet still, they have secured employment at graduation and are immediately moving hundreds if not thousands of miles away from home to begin their careers. While OP's kid, who is their peer from a resource rich elite college, has done nothing.[/quote]

Are you Kamala's speech writer?  This is a word salad that leads to nowhere n'kay....Nyic nyic nyic nyic.[/quote]

Middle class 22 y/o kids at mediocre colleges = Beginning careers in booming cities.

[b]OP's privileged 22 y/o kid at an elite college = Unemployed loser.

It ain't Covid and this ain't normal. OP's coddled kid has issues.[/quote]

You seem bitter, have a Valium and a cocktail.[/quote]
seriously! wtf? That level of vitriol over someone you don't know "ain't normal."[/quote]
