[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]if your kid wants to be a plumber they go to college? That's silly[/quote] Education is valuable. College is valuable.[/quote] [b]I think a lot depends on finances. The view that everybody should go to college regardless of whether or not they plan on ever using their degrees is a very privileged one.[/b] [/quote] +1 Sending one's kids to college just so they can be "well-educated" is the domain of the wealthy. Few parents are going to sacrifice & struggle to put their kids through college -- &/or encourage their kids to incur large amounts of student loan debt-- just so the kids can get a degree they have no intention of ever using.
