[quote=Anonymous]This is discussed multiple times a year on DCUM. 1. There are cultural and socio-economic factors at play. 2. There is a wide range of normal. My son is 18 and hasn't looked for a real job yet (he's done dog walking and dog boarding for neighbors). None of his friends have jobs. Neither my husband nor I had jobs until our TAs in grad school or interning in medical school. None of our relatives and very few of our friends had jobs at those ages either. So instead of "wondering" (criticizing), just relax. There are many families where this is normal. The presence and absence of low-level jobs has no bearing on future success. [/quote]
