I have a daughter - early 20’s... you don’t know how many of her classmates in college who lack any direction are majoring in Psychology and Sociology.
Most figure they would go to work for government agencies... many have serious emotional problems of their own.. hence this is what we get in these positions with CPS agencies... not all mind you.. but some.
I remember a Psych on a local radio show back in the late 80’s saying that he majored in the subject because of his own illness - and that many who did were the same as he.
Our “baby” just turned 30 this month. Amazing how much she agrees with me now on a lot of these things. :)
