[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Based on research, there's a 99% chance she'll fail out of college. Even if she had stronger grades, only a 10% chance she'd finish college. She needs to go to trade school, nurse tech, dental tech. More than likely she'll be pregnant in a year or two. And the cycle repeats itself. Source: I'm a teacher.[/quote] Who doesn't belong in classrooms because your preconceptions damage children.[/quote] I have to agree with the teacher. We don't help young people by not pointing out the odds. Yes, maybe she is in the 1% that are successful, but should we encourage the 99% to get large debt and waste time just to save the 1%? Life is long. She can become a nurse now, and then later, when her life is more in order, go to regular college. The sooner she has her own money, the sooner she can free herself from her family.[/quote]
