When to pull financial plug on son? Doesn't care about his T50 college, he's just sort of...there.

I have two kids who went to college at the same time (not twins). One was the perfect student, did her work, trudged along. She graduated and is employed at a nice job with corporate benefits and a Honey Baked Ham certificate on holidays.

The other started slow and gave me fits about her grades and if she could graduated and what to major in and if she would she lose her scholarship because of low grades. Her boyfriend wasn’t in college and she played online video games with him and his brother way too much. She did make the Dean’s list for consecutive semesters her final years. She found the upper division courses easier and more interesting and received mostly A’s in her last two years. She works on a ranch giving trail rides. She loves it. She makes just enough to pay her student loans. She’s never had a job for more than 6 months but people are very impressed with her resume - Girl Scout Camp counselor, Disney, Moe’s (fast food), the university rec center… She’s a good worker, but just moves on when she wants to. And she smells like a horse.

The one riding horses is much happier than the one in corporate life. She would be happy doing just about anything (not math) because she’s a happy person. Often unrealistic, but happy. She’d be doing the exact same thing if she’d graduated with a 2.0 or a 3.5.
