DH's GC told him he should go learn to be a welder [pretty good tech school here that turned into the comm college with both teach at now and not that there's anything wrong with being a welder and they probably do make pretty good money] because he'd never make it in college. Then DH got a 23? on his ACT and the GC tried to be his best friend. DH graduated with a BS and a Masters in Clinical Psych and is now a licensed therapist, which he loves most of the time. At one time I thought I wanted to be a GC for kids like him, but then decided I'd rather be a SAHM with my kids. I'm halfway there wink .
