[quote=Anonymous]OP, if he refused, I don't think there's much you can do. And I'm one who believes *any* college degree is far better than *no* college degree. I would do 2 things: insist that he apply to 1 school at least. Tell him that's not forcing him to go, it's just forcing him to apply. (then, make it a school you ... quietly and confidentially think is a good choice and a shoe-in for acceptance/affordability) Once that's done, the application in, I would just make sure that he knows - no monetary support from you whatsoever if he's not in school. None. He better have a plan. No money coming from you. If it were my kids, I would be supporting him financially if he were in school, but no money if not. All of this doesn't mean he won't be a success w/out college. But the way I would deal with my inevitable anxiety over no path to a college degree would be to do all I could to make his decision uncomrtable.[/quote]
