[quote=Anonymous]To be fair, OP, I don't think this is 100% on you. Your adult son chose to listen to you/give in to the pressure. He may have agreed or felt like this is what he really wanted, also. But ultimately he's an adult and it was his choice. A bigger question is why there is still this level of parental input for a grown man with his own wife and child (now children). This level of parental involvement is not something I would have been able to tolerate, personally--when my DH was in his late 20s trying to decide about going back to school I'm grateful his family didn't do more than listen and occasionally offer a little feedback. And this was pre-kids for us. Now that this mess has been created (and I agree, it's so unlikely to really pay off unless it meant a career change for him), I agree with PPs that your best bet is to back off and contribute financiall, if you can, to anything that might make their lives easier for even a short while.
