[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My college age child is on a pre health path and is seriously considering vet school and has spoken with a number of vets over the past year. Without fail, every single one of them has told him not to go to vet school for three reasons. One, the pet owners are nightmares. Two, the insane debt he’d incur. Third, the abusive practices of many employers. He still wants to go. I’m making it my mission to talk him out of it even though it breaks my heart. [/quote] Talk to more vets. Many love their jobs. This is a very bad time to be polling vets. My dh is a vet and while it is very hard and he has had a terrible year, he adores his career as do most of his colleagues. Let your son choose. Also - I think if you talked to most people with post-grad degrees, they would give you the same line. Lots of debt, too little pay, etc etc etc. My human doc brother would say the same. Engineer sister also. Etc. etc. [/quote]
