I'm not
@PeteR, so this probably comes from a different perspective, but I'm of two minds when it comes to education.
On the one hand, I believe 90% of people who go to college shouldn't waste their time. The only ones who have really benefited from so many people going to college are corporations that can now expect degrees from their employees when no degree is really necessary -- or the corporation thus doesn't have to pay for the training necessary to conduct the job. The corporation solely benefits from the product, but the employees are expected to make the up-front investment. Great deal for them, but definitely not for the students -- and especially not for the parents if they're paying for it, because almost all universities dedicate their student affairs staff and classrooms to turning your children away from how you've raised them. This is true even at the vast majority of so-called church schools. Wokeness is everywhere.
On the other hand, I certainly have nothing against people being educated, but back when things still made sense, most females in college were readily willing to acknowledge that they were there to get their Mrs degrees. If they found a good leader to hitch their sails to, then the degree was profitable, but if the woman goes out into the workforce unmarried and has to simultaneously work and seek a husband, ultimately most either (a) if married, discover that their degree was of little value to their ultimate husbands, or (b) live a long lonely life without marriage and/or enter into relationships in which they're taken advantage of.
So with my daughters I've become increasingly oriented toward emphasizing to them that, given their desire to ultimately be stay-at-home mothers of multiple children, any college career they acquire will be unlikely to produce enough of a long-term financial reward to justify the money, the time, the energy and the loss of getting on with life -- maybe even the loss of full fertility -- they invested into getting a degree. So I provide sobering advice that, while they may be exceptions to the rule (and everybody wants to think they'll be the exceptions), for the vast majority of women, the end results fall into four categories:
- Get the degree, get married, eventually stop working and have a couple children at most.
- Get the degree and never get married but maybe be an aunt to one's sibling's children.
- Avoid the degree, go to work but insist on being fully independent and never get married.
- Avoid the degree, working until marriage and then having a less glamorous lifestyle but be able to have a few children.
Options 2 and 3 are the outcomes obtained by most feminists, and they include dying alone, perhaps surrounded by dogs, cats or other independent, unmarried dog ladies and cat ladies.
My advice for those females who go to college is to first determine what kind of man they most desire to follow, then pick a major that would give her the skills and/or the employment opportunities that would most benefit the vision of such a husband leader, and avoid doing the temporary-slut thing in college. See the future, and live into it.
