[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with your husband. I think it’s great. Your kids only have so many opportunities to do things like take a year off to work and travel. Bribing him to do his sophomore year of college doesn’t seem like a good move. [/quote] Agree - to a point. I'd not be thrilled BUT I would be impressed he did the work to reach out to his advisor, etc. And, I'd be ok with a year off. That's not that different than a gap year - IF he does what he says (though, I suppose if he wants to waste it working when he has his whole life to work, he can suffer the regret later). However, having said all this, after that year, he better have a plan. If he wants to be an adult-Great. Rent is X, you don't pay for all of the things you had been paying for (or whatever you decide on that), if he's not going back to school. [/quote]
