I totally agree with College being "pushed" onto children, as though it is a given. It is done in a noble way with no ill intention, but it keeps children misinformed about how the world works and keeps them in "spoon fed" mode where they have another 4 years of not being in control of the majority of their lives.
And for those who do go to college, I HIGHLY recommend a community college that is SUPER DUPER cheap where you can learn just as much information as you want to on whatever hobby or career subjects you are interested.
Unless you have a specific career and life path in mind, spend time learning about your hobbies in a cheap way. Only spend bucks for a real degree that you KNOW you need. And, surprise surprise, most of us don't know what we want at 18 years of age out of High School.
