But you do need what the culture of high school does to kids, which is to create a ridiculous amount of stress over a decision that quite frankly DOES NOT MATTER. That decision of course is which excellent college you go to. They are all the same, unless your 18 year old has a very specific niche career desire.

"No one cares where you went...
And those that do... Aren't worth knowing..."
Yep.
My neighbor kids have no idea what they are going to major in. They were taught to remain flexible. To seek out all kinds of courses. To find their passion by doing, not by what others tell them. This comes from their mom.
@corlin One of my favorite lines from that article:
"...what is really being squeezed out is the value of reflection. "
