[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, why not? Many people who are paid low wages work just as hard, if not harder, than those making much more. Sorry, money is important, and I'm not going to tell them it's not. [/quote] You forgot middle wages, most people make wages somewhere in the middle. If people are honest about their kids abilities we aren’t talking about the 1% salaries for most of them. Neither are we talking about low wages. [/quote] Maybe they can punch above their weight by majoring in something that may pay off, despite their "abilities."[/quote] Or simply realizing that they like both X, Y and Z as possible majors, but if Y opens more doors, and has pathways to more higher paying jobs, then the kid might seriously consider majoring in Y. Or at least know, if you major in X, it will be more work to advance and your upper income is more severely limited (I mean how many social workers do you know making $150K+) [/quote]
