I agree there is no right or wrong answer. Everyone should do whatever they want to do, and–as long as each person gets what they want in life–that’s all that matters.
As many of you have mentioned, I also believe happiness and fulfillment in life, along with strong family ties, are extremely important, and we’ve always tried to cultivate those aspects as well. In fact, the planning on the part of the grandparents on both sides of the family is what allowed all of their 20+ grandchildren to pursue whatever they chose.
