[quote=Anonymous]My DH graduated HS by the skin of his teeth, then spent the next three years doing basically nothing. He "tried" community college which amounted to zero. A visit to a recruiter to appease his dad led to DH's enlistment in the USAF where he served 9 years on active duty, received excellent IT training, earned a college degree, and got top secret clearance. He now works as a government contractor for one of the top companies in the DC area. He has a full scope/lifestyle poly and earns well into the 6 figures with excellent benefits. I tease him about being a slacker in his teens and early 20s, but he always says the end justifies the means. For him, it was about choosing to accomplish things on his own. When he took ownership of his future, his whole life changed. So OP, there is hope - don't feel ashamed of your non-college-oriented kid. She will find her way.[/quote]
