Is College the ultimate goal for you in home educating?

Q.Is College the ultimate goal for you in home educating? In our home we do not consider college the ultimate goal or proof that home educating works/doesn't work. IOW, I will not feel like a failure if my children do not choose to go to college. IMHO, life is so much bigger than college. Our children are being raised in a non-materialistic home and we want their happiness to come from being happy within and of themselves, not what people say brings happiness. I truly believe that the American Dream is killing the spirit of the American Family. If my children want to be street sweepers, I hope that they are the happiest street-sweepers out there! Same as if they want to be a doctor or lawyer, I want them to be happy and radiate that happiness and joy to others. I will only feel like a failure, if my children come out of this experience only to have an attitude and poor outlook on life, as many Americans do today who cannot have the "American Dream" or have it but are still miserable. I'm interested how others feel about this as well.

A.I'm 14 and home schooled, and I don't plan on going to college. I want to be a writer, and I already write books and have my own writing style in place, and so I really don't see any point in going to college. I want to start my own business to make money, but I hopefully my writing career will make it so I can retire early LOL. My parents are fine with me not going to college, and I think that you're right about people thinking that home schoolers and regular kids have to go to college to prove that they are smart
