Anybody have a son or daughter who took forever and ever in college? [View all]

This is getting pretty hard to watch. We are in year five of an undergrad program that is now going to apparently take another THREE YEARS. Sorry for shouting...

At the end of that time, there will be a degree in engineering. A bachelor of science degree.

Feeling very pressed here as even though it's a state school, it's a huge investment of time. I'm thrilled my child wants to do something so useful and so difficult but the path is getting pretty rocky and it's hard to see the end.

The clouds are gathering...I dont' want to steer my kid the wrong way and want to encourage to the max but at what point does one re-evaluate and decide to take a different tack?

Could have been right where he is now four years ago. ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!
