[quote=Anonymous][quote]I've seen their scores and report cards and obviously they've been over and converse with my children. [b]They show promise and are on the cusp of being prepared for college. On current track they'll get in[/b], but anyone can get into college. They'd be high-risk future dropouts. [b]Further, they have no way to pay for it [/b]- I don't even know how they'd pay for a junior college. For anyone familiar with Richard Hoggart, he and Richard Rodriguez wrote about being a "scholarship boy." Basically the need for a first-gen working class student to distance themselves from anti-education family and embrace the university. College away from home is the ticket out of the trap multiple generations of their family are caught up in.[/quote] Okay, so you think they can get into college. And you can afford to help pay for college. So why, exactly, are you so stressed out?[b][/quote]
