Ever feel like college is the only ticket to success? You’re not alone: and most parents still think so. But here’s the real talk: College works for some, but not all. Many in-demand careers now value skills, certifications, or apprenticeships over a four-year degree.
Here’s what parents often miss:
1️⃣ Purpose comes before paths: help your student explore what truly excites them.
2️⃣ Alternatives are legit: from tech bootcamps to skilled trades and entrepreneurship.
3️⃣ Less debt, more options: you CAN build a great life without massive student loans.
Cheering for every student who’s forging their own path! Drop a 👍 if you’ve questioned the “traditional” route, or tag a parent who needs this reminder! #CollegeAlternative #CareerSuccess #PurposeDriven
