[quote=Anonymous]It's a great idea to take a year or two off between college and law school. It does not matter at all what he does for that year. Keep him on your health insurance. Other than that, you don't need to give him any money and indeed I think it is better if you do not. If you can afford a few thousand as a graduation gift, fine. Other than that, make very clear to him that he needs to support himself. He might want to look into programs like Fulbright or Watson fellowship (to go abroad), Jesuit Volunteer Corps, JET, a program in Spain where you teach English, etc. But it is totally fine to be a ski bum for a year before law school. You can't get those years back. [/quote]
