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]

Jesus, shut up!! You’re making yourself look even worse.  You’re a fricking nightmare parent.  Conditional love at it’s worst.  [/quote]

not throwing money away is not conditional love. [/quote]

Your kid will have a degree from Johns Hopkins, bad mother, even if her major is not to your liking.

You’re really dreadful, OP.  To even think of forcing her to transfer because she isn’t on a pre-med track.  She is going to hate you (if she doesn’t already). [/quote]
