>Allie is going to be starting out at a community college. She did the bare minimum all the way through high school, just enough to get by. Given that, a four year school doesn't make sense right now (even if she could get admitted). We're going to give this a try and see if she discovers some motivation. If she gets a job for this summer, which she hasn't yet, I hope it is such pure drudgery she decides that isn't the way she wants to spend the next 40 years. She's not dumb, just lazy.

My son, Zach, is 19 and going into the military this summer. We are trying to get him to go with the Air Force. He doesn't really know what he wants to do, and I figure he can mature a little before making a decision. Air Force guys eat steak, while everyone else eats mud, so that's why I'm advocating them.
