I would never say I regret my college experience, but I will say that it's impacted how I think about my son's.
There are benefits to taking a year before going to collegeWhen done the right way, a gap year can provide possibilities.
That's a major part of why I like this idea for my son if he chooses to do it.
And, like a lot of young people, he might move in a direction that none of us can see coming just yet.
However, the potential for a gap year to instill more responsibility and confidence in my son seems to outweigh this particular con in my mind.
