[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids at that age need to realize that attending college is the expectation. If they plan to deviate they better have a good back plan, and be able to articulate it to adults convincingly. You are lucky you have savvy acquaintances. You can’t shelter her forever. [/quote] I work with high school students (not a teacher); I ask how their school year is going or if a senior…what plans they have after graduation. Love the idea of having DD ask about the questioners’ children’s plans. Side note: we are losing the art of conversation and benign banter and exchange of pleasantries. Teach DD to hold a polite conversation with adults. [/quote]
