If you don't recommend that children attend college, what do you encourage them to do instead? Do you follow through with that goal? What does it look like? If you have children between 18-29, what are they doing now? And if you're an adult who did not attend college, do you regret it? (Please don't confuse regret with having to feel bad necessarily—but rather, do you believe things would have been easier or opportunities more available if you went?) I am curious to hear your thoughts.

3 小時內	Ginny Sandstrom math_prof_64	My son went to trade school to become an electrician while working for electrical companies. He is not a book learner but more a hands on learner. He is very smart. He now has a really good job and makes more money than I do. He loves his job. My daughter went to college and is an accountant. She has a great job. She has student loans to pay back. She is a book smart person and she enjoys school. Each child is different but all can be successful once they figure out what they want to do.

I don't think EVERYONE needs to go to college, but I DO think if you choose not to, you should have a clear idea of what you want to do (or be taking active steps to figure it out). Personally I think going the non-college route is riskier if you don't have a clear idea of what you want to do. Having a college degree opens a lot of doors.
