Re: College - advice from the other side....
Good advice. And I'll be honest, homeschoolers have a advantage here if their parents are teaching these things. Because quite frankly the schools aren't. I don't think this is a unique situation you're seeing -- now that my children are of college age, I'm seeing more and more college papers, talking academically to college students, etc., and honestly, I've been startled.
Where we've failed them... I'm not entirely sure. But absolutely we (our society as a whole) have failed this generation of young adults (for the most part) in the education front I strongly believe.
