[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My takeaway as a parent reading this book was that there are so many other options besides 4-year college that can lead to really prestigious and satisfying careers. Starting in elementary school, the drum beat for college starts. I wish my kids had access and information about more of these paths so they could make an educated plan for what's best for their goals. [/quote] So give them information. It’s not hard. All the fake hand wringing. [/quote] And actually in elementary school, "career days" in elementary are all about the visible careers that kids understand, many of which do not require degrees. So it's not "all about college" from day one.[/quote]
