[quote=Anonymous]I think you should be supportive of the career switch, but ask her to stay in her current major. She could start a masters in education immediately after finishing undergrad in business or math and come out of school with her pick of teaching jobs. The business background and a masters can prep her for school administration -- if that is a path that she wants to follow eventually. She will get a higher salary with a masters almost everywhere. She will never lack employment as a math teacher. I assume you are paying for her degree? I think it is fine to tell her that you won't pay if she switches her major. She is not an independent adult supporting herself. If she wants your monetary help, she needs to consult you and accept that you would like a say in her major and education plans while you are paying for it.[/quote]
