[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gap years are trendy but the kids we and our college sophomore know who did them tend to feel older and out of touch with their peers and uninterested in school once they start college. Just a handful of anecdotal examples but very glad my two September kids have no interest.[/quote] Was it a gap year, meaning there was a mission and purpose to that time or were they just working a retail job? The latter is called 'taking time off'. The term gap year connotes something akin to a sabbatical but for youth.[/quote]
