[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the gap year sounds like a win-win for your son and the grandparents. When else will they get that opportunity? I think it’ll make for one hell of an essay, too, in the fall. [/quote] I would also consider hiring someone - even if just for an hour or two - to review his fall applications. Seems like something might not have been great. [/quote] Agree. One out of eleven (1/11) isn't good. Something needs to be changed. Also, farm work is dangerous. If the son is going to be working on a farm for a year, he will be involved with farm machinery. Not the safest environment.[/quote] According to OP's first post, their son has been working on the farm during the summer for the last few years, so he probably has more than a passing familiarity. That said, most of my relatives farm and many periodically express gratitude that there have never been serious accidents.[/quote]
