<<UnschoolinMy belief is that going to college
will be a thing of the past and not important at all.... Afterall reading a
book doesn't in anyway prepare you for the realities of life. Life skills
and living are far more important in a job... Of course I also believe that
working for oneself is the only way to go in life and I know many of you
don't believe that, for whatever reason. I think that now I live outside the
box I can really see, which I couldn't do before.>>

Well, I don't think college will become a thing of the past; I think it's here to stay. Also, most jobs do pay you more money if you have that college diploma, unfortunately.

However, I want to recommend a REALLY GOOD book I read recently called SUCCESS WITHOUT COLLEGE by Linda Lee. Amazon.com has it; check out the review at their site.

I think that's the point I'm trying to make about being self-employed.... You
don't need a degree for that, but you do need life experience and that's
something I believe (IMHO) unschooling gives.
