[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has she ever had a job, OP? If she had, she might "get it." I worked at CVS weekends, school breaks and summers starting at age 15 and also as a camp counselor during the summers. Years of minimum wage jobs before college let me know that I wanted to go to college and why.[/quote] I don't think OP's daughter is questioning the point of going to college but the point of pushing herself so hard to get into an "elite" college. You don't have to do to an elite college to work in a field that requires a college degree instead of at a minimum wage job.[/quote]
