OP here. But, I'm paying for her school.[/quote]

And you wouldn’t pay if she doesn’t get into med school?

Don’t do that, OP.  You’re paying for her college education.  What she does with it is up to her.  [/quote]

OP here. No, I would get her to transfer to a cheaper school if she decides not to be pre-med because full price for a public health degree is not worth it. [/quote]

Wow. [/quote]

+1 I mean seriously, what a way to destroy your kid. [/quote]

+2. You’re a horrible parent, OP.  The truth is out.  No wonder your poor daughter is suffering.  [/quote]

+3 stay out of this op. You are awful and your kid will do better navigating it without you.[/quote]

OP here. How am I the "bad" one here. $70,000 is a lot for a degree in public health if all she decides she wants to work in health policy or epidemiology. We know there is no money there. I just want my DD to have a well-paying, stable job and if she goes all "social justice warrior" on me, what we're paying for Hopkins won't be worth it. I have supported her every step of the way, but I know my DD is in that stage where she believes she can "change the world" and that's not real life. [/quote]

OP no need to defend you parenting to strangers. They are not in your shoes. I'd focus on getting your DD back on track. [/quote]
