[quote=Anonymous]I think the comments here are disheartening. College should be where students discover the options available to them and broaden their horizons. I understand that most see it now as vocational training and so I guess OP and most of you are aligned in your thinking. OP's kid seems like she is searching for where her passion is and is seeing it as being teaching. While I am amazed where the teachers at my DD's high priced private went to school/where their (sometimes multiple) degrees are from - I am also amazed at how happy and well rounded so many are. Being a parent and choosing to pay for college (which I certainly will do) I believe means giving your child the freedom to continue their education, make choices that they feel reflect their goals. IF you only want to pay for college that seem destined for a job at least own that you are paying for job training so your kids know what your goals and expectations are for the money[/quote]
