My son, who has ghosted us, didn’t want to go to college. He was working for the state higher ed refinancing group doing support calls and did his on Visual Basic programming to simplify his life.
That got noticed and he got hired to do some SASS programming. I think he noticed he could earn more with a degree so he enrolled. But he was still staying out too late and started doing poorly so he dropped school. I was pretty upset with him but he was already moved out so it was his life.
Sometime during the period where we were ghosted I found him on LinkedIn enrolled in school again. He finally got a 4 year degree. He’s also a CFO for a home building company. So he finally did OK.
