re: Is anyone else not pushing their kids to attend college?

Mine is going despite not knowing what he wants to do. We are pushing it for several reasons. First, he’s an only child and has grown up in an area that’s a bubble from the real world. He needs the experience of living on his own and being responsible for himself before he’s thrown into the real world. Second, he has a 4.5 gpa and has worked hard throughout school to earn it. He’s capable of doing college work and it likely wouldn’t be very difficult for him. Lastly, he wants to be a body builder. That’s great and we support him but having a business degree and/or sports PT under his belt to fall back on wouldn’t be horrible.

Sounds like he should focus on nutrition/kinesiology if he's going to college. College is A LOT easier if you are interested in the material you are studying.

if he likes health and human performance, tell him to go for Kins and then go PT school and get certifications for S&C and Bodybuilding in between
highly recommend Joe Defranco & Jim Smiths CPPS courses and then also this LINK
along with his cscs.
if he does those things and gets his PT he will be way ahead of 99% of people.
