College doesn't have to be an indoctrination center.
Online universities have all of the education and none of the social crap. Check out Western Governors University. The first time I met another student was at graduation and there were 3,000 of us there. They have a business college, IT, teaching and nursing colleges. And it's damn cheap, my whole 4yr degree was under $25k. I'm actually starting my masters on Wednesday. If I accelerate as planned, I'll get an MBA for less than $5k from a 4x regionally accredited university.
Keeping your daughter in an uneducated bubble is not the right answer. Long term, we need more educated young people who are impervious to woke rhetoric, to excel and outperform the current crop of Gen Z gender hijackers. In a few years they will all be vying for leadership positions-- in management and government. We need more educated voices in that generation and the one after it.

I phrased that poorly. I plan to discourage her from going through the "traditional" college route, as I did. It was mostly useless for me and a waste of money. I have a very good friend whose son has graduated with an accredited accounting degree from an online university at 14, and will likely be the youngest licensed CPA in Mississippi state history at 15. So, I agree with you 100%.

She is 5 and a half and currently working on 2nd grade math standards. It's amazing how fast children can advance when they're spending 6 hours a day on Math, Reading, and Writing and cutting out all of the BS in a typical school day (which seems to compose half or more). She advances at her own pace, and she loves learning new things. We also have her in half a dozen extracurricular activities and she meets with two different homeschool groups. I am very thankful that my father raised me to be mentally strong against the indoctrination I faced in college, and I certainly plan for my youngster to have the same mental fortitude when she enters the real world on her own.
