[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- we are paying for the college. He can't pay for it himself, so that is how we will stop him from going to college for a year or two.

Why he does not want to go into a good program because he does not want to take calculus.

And yes there are some jobs out there that might take a history/geography major, but for each opening thousands of unemployed liberal arts majors send their application in.

We worked really hard to get to the point where we can afford college for our kids, paying for a history/geography degree for us is like spending 100k for a car that will break down in a few years, it is not a good financial decision. Fact is your college major will determine if you are homeless or in the upper class when you are 40, maybe it is sad, but that is how it is in modern America.[/quote]

i haven't read the wholel thread because i knew people were going to attack you. your money, your rules - no such thing as 'adult' while parents are paying the bills.

OP, you are correct but you need to broaden your options. nursing sounds bad (for a man), but being a doctor sounds great. [b]is he interested in being a doctor[/b]? [/quote]

Clearly, no.  He is interested in history and geography.  [/quote]
