I have a raising senior, and the list building began during Jr. Year. In that year, I leaned so much from reading threads, but to recap the year, I wish:
- I started running the finances of retirement and kid 2 in college way earlier, and run the net price calculator on each school before digging into the programs.
- I accepted that Theater Kid wasn’t ever going to care about standardize testing for merit money. Ever.
- Theater kid was growing up and changing thoughts about BFA/BA, and well, just changing. No amount of list building to be prepared early was ever going to hold up to the maturation process. I’m sure future evolution of list due to self discovery will be needed.
