<p>Btw, voce, I am a low income student that works 3 jobs. Your son is struggling to find one job and yet still manages to make it through. I wouldn’t be able to afford my education if I wasn’t working 2-3 jobs at a time (oh, and only one of them is work study and it’s the one that pays the least and I get the fewest hours at). Do you have any idea how difficult it is to work that much and still go to school full time? Luckily, your child doesn’t have to. And the reason that I was able to obtain those jobs is because I worked throughout most of high school as well (therefore had work history once I got to college). Trust me, that wasn’t fun either. </p>
<p>I’d switch places with your middle class son in a heartbeat.</p>
