Next step

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, after my son graduated from nursing school which I, as a single parent, paid for with blood, sweat, and tears, during his grad party he was asked what his next step was. His response was, "Eh, I kinda realized I hate nursing." FML

At least he finished. I'm a nurse and knew a few who quit half way through. He's always got it if he changed his mind later.

He should have known at least half way through is courses that he didn't want to be a nurse.

That's ridiculous if he really didn't like nursing he would've realized sooner instead of putting you through all that crap.

He realized that NOW? I dropped medical school the very first year to avoid this. But my parents wanted to force me to continue study medicine. Maybe you did the same thing. Or maybe your son is just too stupid.

This is why it's stupid for parents to pay for tuition. They take it for granted. When my kids go to uni I will be putting my blood sweat and tears into my retirement fund.

Surely he knew what he was getting into before spending $$$$ on a 4 year course...

Your son is an ungreatfull little bitch. Smack him and kick him to the curb, maybe then he'll realize what you went through for him.

Yeah you would. Spending your life to become a chef and then bam! You don't want to do it anymore because you might die for getting mistaken for a slice of cheese and eaten. It's okay bro, "I haz ur bak!"

At least he has the experience and could possibly get such a job if he fails in the vocational world even if he doesn't like it.

Then why didn't he switch his major while in college? If he hated nursing or "mursing" if you will.
