>>I would hazard to guess that when your young niece graduates, she will marvel at how smart you’ve become. Since she knew it all before she left and got older, it must have been you that finally got a clue....[needs no sarcasm tag, I think]
She graduated 10 years ago, but she did change major to Music Therapy and Education while in college because she knew she needed to find a job some day.
However, she moved to NYC and became a teacher after graduation, so she’s still soooooo much smarter and worldly than us hicks back home.
LOL, yet saddened. Perhaps she'll catch on in time to prepare for the future. At that age many still don't realize that dying with the most toys or fanciest life doesn't mean much.
