[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So OP wants her to son to pursue the current version of vocational educational and enter the work world with valuable skills. If she had recommended he pursue plumbing or become an electrician you would probably all still be calling them a craptastic parent and calling troll.[/quote] OP wants her son to take a short cut to get only basic skills to do a job that is easily outsourced and sent overseas, so may not be a secure path long-term. OP’s kid wants to go to college to get those skills and more, and thus be more marketable and versatile in the long run.[/quote] For everyone stuck in the college for all world, know that there are other pathways to success without dumping $100k + into a liberal arts degree. https://www.sas.com/en_us/certification.html[/quote]
