[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you graduate from college you get a job and are on your own. I do not want my kid to have to work during the school year. Most career oriented summer jobs these days have become unpaid internships (a very disturbing trend that I hear about from most college going parents). Are there actually any parents with kids in college reading this thread? What are you doing?[/quote] Our kids were part of the unpaid internship group, one at a large accounting firm the other at an investment bank. I don't think waiting tables would have helped them land great jobs after college - in fact the kids I know who did that are back waiting tables or unemployed. We gave them $400 a month spending money, the youngest graduated in may. [/quote]
