"My early college concern is more financial in nature. We purchased the pre-paid college tuition programs from our state when our children were born. The plan only allows the the child to enter college three years earlier than originally predicted due to age. DS11 is up by two years already, we don't have too much more room without factoring in a gap year or something."
I've always thought it would be fun to backpack around Europe with my girls for a year or two if they graduated from school early and let them go to college "on time"
"Unschool" them if you will.
However, just because I think that would be super awesome, doesn't mean they will!!
