I would say get a degree, but that's a product of how I was raised. As a child, my parents would verbally berate me for every "bad" (some of them were still above average) grade I received, and, as professionals and college graduates themselves, were constantly were pushing for me to not just "get into college", but get into a good one. In this day and age, the job market isn't as open as it once was, and I think it's important to have every advantage that you can get. From the perspective of the world I was told, "not having a degree means you can't get a job". Now, as an adult, I see this is untrue. As much as I would like to say it doesn't matter which option you take, however, I would like my child to be in a spot that will help her more, so I would reccomend for her to further her education. While both options are feasible, people tend to aspire for there children to, at the very least, accomplish what they did, and for me that would be my daughter living out her life in a nice, suburban, middle-class neighbourhood (ie working in IT, becoming a chemist, becoming a veterinarian [her favourite choice
, although I hear the cost to go to school for that is quite high], etc.)
