[quote=Anonymous]There's a peculiar problem of privilege in this area, where MC/UMC kids who are not academically inclined or who have disaffiliated from school just have no place to belong. I often think that my DC would have had an easier time of it if we lived in the industrial midwest where I grew up. There just seemed to be a greater acceptance of alternatives to college, even among middle class folks. My suggestion--besides therapy for yourself--would be to seek out alternative models for your DC. Do you have any happy, well-adjusted adults in your family or your wider circle who didn't go to college?[/quote]
