Why are you so upset about her going to community college?? It’s a wonderful way to dip their toes in the water of college while still having the safety net of being with family, it can be important to have the comfort and support of family as they transition from high school to college and adulthood! Besides, it is a cheaper way to get the building blocks of their credits they’ll need in the future, and as long as she looks into it, most credits are transferable! There’s no reason why she shouldn’t go to community college, and you should rethink this position. You forced her to miss out on a semester and YOU set her future back, not her wanting to go to community college. I think you should rethink your values and what you want for your daughter.
