Silver -

I'm so glad you quit University. It sounded like an awful course load. I wouldn't have lasted a minute in a language program.

On MSN.com today they said the hottest skill is bilinqual with the growing international market. By chance would you be binlingual in any particular language. If not, can you get some tapes and study just one language?

I am so sorry your father is being emotionally abusive. My father was just the opposite of yours. My father was so old fashioned he didn't believe girls should go to college. My brother went to Cornell and Harvard. After my brother died suddenly at age 38, my parents offered to stand behind me, if I wanted to go back to college.

I'm so sorry your father is being so selfish, self-absorbed and unreasonable.

Hugs and love,

EJ
