[quote=Anonymous]You should try to help your child make decisions that is right for him/her. To expect an 18 yo to know how to spend the rest of their lives is a bit much. Even if they get the degree there's no assurance they will work in the field. Let them feel like they can explore options and discover what they really are good at. Eventually you have to trust them. Since our goal is our child's happiness, we let her pick. Frankly if she quit tomorrow and became a bohemian instead of the physicist she planned on, we would probably still pay her rent. Don't any of you remember having dreams of all the possible things you could become? The world was full of wonder and opportunity when I was young. Why would I steal my DD's dreams away from her? BTW, she has a bohemian friend and she's lovely and doing very well writing songs in Hawaii. It's not the worst that could happen.[/quote]
