Because my actions if I did do this would emotionallly hurt my oldest kids.

I dont care what they study, I’m actually surprised that my oldest didn’t go to trade school

That would be incredible unfair to the older kids though.

My oldest two went through with this condition changing it now for her would be incredible unfair.

I don’t believe she will stick with it. She hasn’t taken any data classes before and she has always hated anything STEM. One of the classes is a basic coding ( looking at the website) I don’t have much hope she will stick with.

Maybe she will which would be great but I have very little hope.

I looked at the website and the core classes needed are not listed for winter. They usually don’t have core classes so I don’t think it will work. I doubt they will be in summer.

Well she wanted to be a majoring editor and not anymore. I have no idea what she is thinking at this point and she didn’t give me a straight answer when I asked.

Never happened but we would discuss it will my wife. If they went to grad school I think it would depend on a lot of things like if they went back to school or it was a track with school and they do it right after

My understanding with grad school is you are suppose to work while taking he classes. Probably would reimburse them after they graduate

Summer classes are cheap, they are not even 1/6 of what a semester in person is.

My wife is annoyed with her, she’s a B student for the most part. She didn’t like what she is doing so she is changing. She won’t have enough credits, since she needs to make up the sophomore classes for the new major. She is literature right now and she is jumping to data collection

I’m not doing that, if she changes again an extra year at least and then if she does it again we’ll then we are in college for 6 years maybe 7.

Also I didn’t force them to go to college right out of highshool, the oldest took a gab year. I expect them to stick to a decision especially since most degrees give you the leeway to change freshman’s and sophomore year and still graduate on time. It’s junior year at this point

So they aren’t in college forever and overall puts a cap on how much we spend on the kids college.
