    As long as she does well, there will always be a need for teachers... unfortunately, a lot of the kids that come out of high school and have NO CLUE what they want to do with their lives, go into teaching - particularly elementary ed.... there's lots of dingle-berries in that major, so fortunately for her, as long as she can distinguish herself as a good candidate, she'll be set to go for a long career...

    If she likes math at all, there are always great opportunities in mathematics... see some of the articles below - what do they have in common? Nearly all of the best jobs available require a high proficiency in mathematics... I'm an actuary, #2 on the World Job's Rated Almanac... Its not for everyone, and its extremely difficult, but also very rewarding... If she likes mathematics, there will always be a job awaiting, no matter if its work like I do, or underwriting, or engineering, etc...

    They don't feel there's a big market in photography either. She is interested elementary ed. so hopefully there'll be something out there for her.
    I was one of the kids that didn't have a clue what I wanted to do, but instead of trying college I thought as long as I got a job I'd be okay. Big mistake! That's why I'm so glad she has a plan. I want her to do good for herself not having to scronge for everything like I have.
    Unfortunately math isn't one of her strong points. I guess she took after me in that area, I was terrable with it. For me numbers just don't stick, example, I've had the same cell phone number for at least 5 or 6 years, I can't remember it to save my life. Maybe it's because I don't call myself but I was the same way in school, I couldn't get the multiplication table to stick and it was down hill from there.
    I get her on the weekends so I'll have her at least check out the links you sent. Thanks for putting those up.
