[quote=Anonymous]If your kid does not want to go to school, community college may be a waste of her time/efforts/money. My brother (now 28) was a terrible high school student and is still working on his bachelors, after spending 5 years in community college doing remedial math and dropping a couple of classes per semester. He was able to move to a four year university after finishing his associate degree but cannot get through the college graduation requirements after another five years. I feel that he would have been better off working a few years to get better settled than just pushing forwarding for with school that he had no desire to do. Sometime, people see school as a chore that they don't want to do, and they need to see how terrible the world is when you are working based on a high school degree. On the other hand I have seen some people mature and want to excel after working a while, including one high school friend who went to medical school. [/quote]
